      Hi
      my goal is to avoid this MS sysprep shit when deploying serveral pc`s and to do minor actions on the machine itself.
      I have a FOG Server running on Hyper-V (Server 2016), Ubuntu Mate … works
      my "Master"Host is w10Pro6 fully installed with FOG Service instaled, PXE works

      My steps:
      Starting MasterHost and make a quick registration (the only time work on the host)
      Hostname in dadabast is the MAC, Hostname of MasterHost is a unique windows name (not changed)
      at this moment the hostname in database and on the host is different and I would expect the FOG Service to to his work and make a hostname change and reboot. It does not.
      Even after another reboot, the hostname is not changed.

      that means also a red icon instead of a green one because my DNS Server does not know the hostname written in database and cannot ping.

      Now I deploy the image I captured before to the same machine hoping for a changed hostname (erasing MBR/GPT tables wait wait wait , there is a thread about this problem, but I didnt do anything yet)
      HEUREKA ! Hostname changed ! the icon is already red, but the dns-server can ping the hostname.

      is this the solution for changing a hostname? by deploying a whole image?

            @Sebastian-Roth Isn’t it enabled by default?

              @WalterT You need to enable HostnameChange module in the host’s settings…

              Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

              Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG
