Fog 0.33b edit PXE menu
-
remember though, that this method is only a mild level of security being added. if anyone goes to
[FONT=Consolas][url]http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/boot.php[/url][/FONT]
they will see the password in plain text -
Hi,
[quote=“Junkhacker, post: 33174, member: 21583”]if anyone goes to
[FONT=Consolas][url]http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/boot.php[/url][/FONT]
they will see the password in plain text[/quote]really? a webserver should never delivery a php file contents cleartext.
Regards X23
-
that file generates the fog boot menu, which is a plain text file generated with php
[FONT=Consolas]iseq ${password} yourpasswordhere && goto MENU || goto return[/FONT]
is ipxe script code in plain text -
In svn, I’ve added the ability to set the menu itself as either login or no login. I’m not going to work, quite yet, on the individual advanced menu password requirements.
Hopefully this will help people out.

Works

Thanks for the responses everyone. I really appreciate it. Hiding the menu works for the time being, but having the ability to pick and choose which menu items have it, and which don’t down the road would be most welcome.

I’ve now added the ability to add “individual” password login settings to menu items
My current menu that is tested and working, although very minimal, is:
[code]isset ${userID} && goto do_me || goto MENU
:do_me
kernel bzImage root=/dev/ram0 rw ramdisk_size=127000 ip=dhcp dns=10.10.10.1 web=10.10.10.118/fog/ consoleblank=0 loglevel=4 type=down img=win7actsysprep ftp=10.10.10.118 imgType=n osid=7 storage=10.10.10.118:/images capone=1 imgFormat=0
imgfetch init.xz && boot || goto MENU
:MENU
menu
item --gap Please Select one of the images below
item fog.local Boot from hard disk
item d101_64 D101 Base Image (64 bit load)
item return Return to main menu
choose --default fog.local target && goto ${target}
:fog.local
sanboot --no-describe --drive 0x80 || goto MENU
:d101_64
chain -ar ${boot-url}/service/ipxe/advanced.php?login=1 || goto MENU
:return
chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=${net0/mac} || goto MENU
autoboot[/code]Notice the :d101_64 how it has the chain -ar ${boot-url}/service/ipxe/advanced.php?login=1 || goto MENU ?That’s all that’s needed to have a “login” for your menu item. Notice the top where it says :do_me? This is important to note that it’s ABOVE the menu generation part of the advanced menu setup.
As I stated, this is very basic, but a method to :sort: the different functions could be:
[code]isset ${userID} && iseq ${bootnum} 1 && goto do_me ||
isset ${userID} && iseq ${butnum} 2 && goto do_me2 ||
goto MENU
:do_me
kernel bzImage root=/dev/ram0 rw ramdisk_size=127000 ip=dhcp dns=10.10.10.1 web=10.10.10.118/fog/ consoleblank=0 loglevel=4 type=down img=win7actsysprep ftp=10.10.10.118 imgType=n osid=7 storage=10.10.10.118:/images capone=1 imgFormat=0

What’s the difference between Aru’s method of booting (sanboot) and Junkhacker’s method (initrd and chain memdisk) when it comes to booting a Windows iso? I have an image of my Windows 7 installer disk, and was wondering.
Edit: I done goofed.

[quote=“madskillz23, post: 28476, member: 8206”]Awesome, that got me most of the way there. Now its just messing around with kernel arguments for the two Ubuntu distros. But, I did get Xubuntu 13.04 working with the following code in case anyone else finds it useful:
[CODE]:Xubuntu 13.04
kernel ${boot_url}/xubuntu/casper/vmlinuz root=/dev/nfs/ boot=casper netboot=nfs nfsroot=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:/images/xubuntu/
initrd http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/fog/service/ipxe/xubuntu/casper/initrd.lz
boot
[/CODE]Thanks for all the help![/quote]
madskillz23,
Did you get Ubuntu 14.04 to boot??
I extracted all the files from the ISO and put them into /images/ubuntu14041/ and it tries to boot but I get the “(initramfs) Unable to find a live file system on the network” message…

I am pretty sure these work. Let me know if they don’t though and I should be able to find the backup copy of the arguments.

Is there a way to display Link Speed? 10Mbit 100Mbit 1000Mbit??
Or is there a very light boot disk that can do it???I looked over at the ipxe.org site and could not find anything on link/media speed…
Any ideas???
Having this info helps reduce the time figuring out which PC is the bad one when there is very slow multicast…
