Kernal update issue
-
I’m confused.
Updating the Kernel will not update your version of FOG.
-
@Tom-Elliott I understand that…you are telling me passwords should match but not to change anything. I didnt change anything from the default settings, therefore i assume that i should be able to download the latest kernal update. if i don’t need to do that, then i will skip and move on to the next issue
-
@cjesso But you said you did make changes. So now we have to fix those.
-
@Tom-Elliott haha sigh ok…i only changed it cause you said to make sure they matched. maybe i misunderstood.
I want to be able to deploy windows 10 images to multiple PCs. What version of Ubuntu should i use (version # and desktop or server) and what version of FOG should i use. I will wipe it all and start fresh
-
@cjesso There’s no need to wipe and start fresh.
Ubuntu is fine. Fog 1.4.2 would be what I would recommend.
We can still fix the password change problem.
Open a terminal.
open the file
/opt/fog/.fogsettings
Look for
password=
the password there is your TFTP and Storage Node Management Password.This account is the
fog
user from the Linux machine. -
@Tom-Elliott well i downloaded 1.4.2, but it tells me i don’t have the latest version. If i open file explorer and go to that location, there is no .fogsettings file. Are those files hidden?
-
@cjesso any
.
started files in linux are considered “hidden” yes.What file did you download? The one from sourceforge? This has since been updated. Unfortunately github is currently having issues so I can’t update its file until later on.
-
@Tom-Elliott yes… as for a password, it shows
mod hidden for safety
. is this encrypted? and should i just change it there? is the default password? -
@cjesso This is the password yoru linux fog user is set to. It’s not encrypted.
Copy and paste where needed.
I’m modding so your stuff is not exposed. -
@Tom-Elliott k so that worked. I’m not sure why it didnt work in the first place, as i didnt change any passwords. Shall i created a new thread for my other issue(s)?
-
@cjesso Yes please.
