        @wernercd it is worth noting, with the new client rebuilding it is no longer needed. And if for some reason you still need to, there’s automated build scripts available: https://github.com/fogproject/fog-client#building

        Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

            This article on the wiki gives you a sort of insight on how to go about it. [url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Managing_FOG#Securing_Active_Directory_Integration[/url]

              While that link is indeed helpful. I’m looking for information on compiling the windows client from source. it’s doing some things I don’t like and I want to change it. First and foremost is it’s not checking to see if a printer exists before trying to add one. So my users get errors saying this printer already exists.

                  To the best of my knowledge, no building of the FOGclient is required. The Fogclient is precompiled and available for you to install by going to your fog servers web management page: [url]http://<fog_server_ip>/fog/client[/url]

                  hope this helps.
