I know what's wrong, I just don't know how to fix it!

Dumb question but, your Windows firewall is off, right? Like… totally off? Exceptions for stuff like TFTP don’t really work… I couldn’t get them to work anyways… maybe FTP might be the same… best to turn it off.

Also,

Can you try to use FTP from the FOG server itself? If it works, then that is a valuable troubleshooting piece.

Here are some screen shots of the storage node and image details, any suggestions?

Any updates?

Thank you for your screenshots, but can you test that Wayne-Workman ask for ?

I don’t have a ftp server to test it with, so I used ftp.kernel.org, being a public site, I couldn’t actually finish the upload,

220 Welcome to kernel.org
Name (ftp.kernel.org:image): anonymous
331 Please specify the password.
Password:
230 Login successful.
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.
ftp> put /tmp/test.txt
local: /tmp/test.txt remote: /tmp/test.txt
200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
550 Permission denied.

But this is as far as I got.

Is there any other test you’d like me to perform?

Thanks

You have an FTP server. Your FOG server is an FTP server.

On your FOG server, if you go to Terminal, you should be able to use FTP from there, and test moving files, uploading files, etc.

Tom kindly fixed it for me, I’m very grateful. I want to document it properly in case anyone else has the problem, which I’ll do tomorrow, its 23:45 here and after a week of trying to get it to work I need some beauty sleep!!

Thank you all for your help, it’s much appreciated, sleep well.

Yours

The problem was that the master node check box wasn’t selected. As it was a new storage node, it needed selecting.

Thank you all for your help. It’s much appreciated.
