      Dear all,

      I’m trying to understand the password scheme of FOG:
      I have a (more or less) working configuration, but
      I’d like to make things more clear!

      I summarize what I have uderstand up to now …
      if someone wants to integrate, perhaps it will be usefull
      for everyone.

      The reference Fog Installation installation is a
      Linux box (Debian) with both storage node and Web UI
      (DNS and DHCP are on different machines), and 1 user
      configured with

      • user: fog
      • pass: mypass
        On the Linux box I can access via ssh with user fog,
        ftp, with user fog, and tftp

      FOG PASSWORD CONFIGURATION

      In the FOG configuration file commons/config.php

      define( “MYSQL_DATABASE”, “fog” );
      define( “MYSQL_USERNAME”, “root” );
      define( “MYSQL_PASSWORD”, “mypass” );
      This password is used by the Web UI to access the database.
      If wrong - the Web UI says: “Unable to connect to database.”

      define( “TFTP_FTP_USERNAME”, “fog” );
      define( “TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD”, “mypass” );
      This password is used for the FTP access?
      (tftp do not need password)

      define( “STORAGE_FTP_USERNAME”, “fog” );
      define( “STORAGE_FTP_PASSWORD”, “mypass” );
      And this password? For FTP? And the previous one?
      Which is the difference between the 2?

      On the Fog Web UI I have:

      Other Information -> Fog Settings

      FOG Storage Nodes

      FOG_STORAGENODE_MYSQLUSER fogstorage
      FOG_STORAGENODE_MYSQLPASS anotherpass
      (in my configuration here I have a password in the form fsnnnn …
      created at installation time: where is it used?)

      FOG_TFTP_FTP_USERNAME fog
      FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD mypass
      (same as TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD I imagine)

      Storage Management -> Edit Storage Node Definition
      Management Username: fog
      Management Password: mypass
      (this must match the FTP password of the PC?)

      thanks
      bye
