New Fog client and security
-
@Wayne-Workman
That file does not exist. Where should it come from?
The PC (well, VM actually) is running 32-bit Windows 7. -
@LibraryMark The new client should place it when it’s installed.
-
@Wayne-Workman
Right. Well, it didn’t. -
@LibraryMark Does the computer you tried on have Internet access?
-
@Wayne-Workman Yes. Why?
-
@LibraryMark Just asking questions to try to figure out what happened. I’m still thinking on it.
-
@Wayne-Workman
Oh. Well - don’t spend too much time on it. I can always get by with the old client for now. -

Pinging @Joe-Schmitt about this.

The log says invalid security token. Try hitting the reset encryption data button on the host in the fog web portal.

I feel I should add some information.
The new client and security are a “teamed” thing. So while the client is highly more secure, this security is two sided.
First bit. We have asymmetric key pairs set up on the server of which the client uses the server’s public key to verify and validate the trust of the server.
The server has a trust of the client as well, so both sides must be trusting each other for communication to happen. This is all automatic.
If the Server cannot trust the client, the client is immediately informed of such actions and no pertinent (sensitive) data is passed to the client. If the client cannot trust the server, the client will not keep communicating with the server (won’t keep trying to get anything from the server).
In the first case (server cannot trust) the response is “Invalid security token.” This can be reset right on the GUI if you’re sure the client is a viable client in your environment. This will enable you to know of potential “trouble” clients as well.
All of this is handled, more or less, automatically though. There is a third layer of security which is to ensure the client installer is “trusted”. This is handled when you first start to install the client. It downloads the public key of the layout that was used to sign the file during the build process.
Of all of this, the most problematic issue is most likely the installation itself. This is because the installation will look to the internet to download the public key. If this cannot be found, I don’t know the consequences. That said, most will not have to worry about this.
The way all this security works is quite fast and very much automated. While you may have the occasional “Invalid Security Token” issue, this is most likely to occur after imaging and the system has the client enabled on an image that was sysprepped. This is issue will often occur because it attempts to send the “trust” information of the original uploaded system. This tells the server that the information is invalid and properly shuts the communication down. (Even though it’s highly unexpected from the admin/user side).
The imaging process (deploy) will reset the token information automatically so as to help prevent these issues, but as I stated there may be some oddities to this occasionally. If there’s other issues, you can reset this information right within the GUI. This reset can be done individually per each host, or via groups. There’s also cli methods to reset though most won’t need this.
In the second case (client cannot trust) the issue is a little bit more involved. A client receives all its information from the server and performs actions based on what the server sends it, so it is necessary to make the client trust the server on a much “deeper” level. The Trust relationship in either direction is incredibly important, but right fully more “show stopping” when the client cannot trust the server because of the earlier statements (the client performs actions based on what the server sends it).
The asymmetric key’s are generated when the fog installer is run. These keys are signed by an automatically generated CA (Certificate of Authority) on the same installer pass. While you can pass arguments to recreate the CA (which will also automatically recreate the main server’s keys), it would be unwise to do so after the initial install and FOG Client being installed in your image. This is because the CA signed certificate is what’s used to validate the trust of the server. Without this, you could by pass simply by making your own certs which would defeat the purpose of all the security. Yes, it is more than possible to use your own purchased certs and information, but for the installer sake and documentary purposes this will need to be asked on a case by case basis (though it’s rather simple). If you need to update your server’s keys for whatever reason, and are reasonably sure your CA is not impacted, you can do this without any issue to the clients.

Tried it. fog.log still says,
ERROR: Could not find file 'C:\Program Files\FOG\token.dat'.``` -
@Tom-Elliott - thanks for the explanation of how it works.
Did something happen that drove all this effort to secure things? Was someone hacked?
-
@Tom-Elliott
Is the token file only generated on imaging? Where does it come from - what puts ‘C:\Program Files\FOG\token.dat’ in place? -

It happened because it was needed. Nobody is known to have been hacked - maliciously. The developers are often the ones to find holes, and then they patch them.

The encryption & security model for the new client only concerns the new client’s communications with the server, not imaging itself. You can image without any client installed on the image, you would just have a lot of manual work afterwards to do.
-
Thanks, Wayne.
No one is able to answer why the token.dat file is not there? What puts it there? I have seen other topics on this issue, but have not seen any solution (that I understand, anyway). I know I must be doing something wrong but I have no idea what.
I know I do not need the client to image, and all I do use the client for is hostname changing and rebooting if there is a task waiting (and I don’t really need that). Those two things could be accomplished easy enough in other ways, I suppose. I already have an autoit script that runs on the last auto-login to do some tasks before the user sees the PC. It could easily change change the host name, too. Knowing what to change it to is the only (slightly) hard part. Could be as simple as parsing a text file for a mac-hostname pair, and I could host that on the fog server. Could make a php script for it that hands out the hostname given a mac address from the fog database.

I know why the token file doesn’t exist. Its because the server and client haven’t been able to handshake yet. This is why I need the whole fog.log after you hit reset encryption.
Nothing changes in the log file after I hit the reset encyption button that I can see. I did notice that the little indicator in the host list was red while the rest were green, fwiw. Here is the log file - I cleared it, rebooted the machine, hit the button, and waited 5 minutes.

@LibraryMark It appears to be working fine now.
Maybe It behaves differently than the old client? In the past, if I change the hostname to something incorrect, it will correct it in short order. That does not seem to happen now.
The VM is up and running, the mac address is correct in FOG, and yet I get a “no such device or address” next to the host in the “all hosts” list. All the other hosts are green and say “success”.

A-ha! I just now manually rebooted, the host name did indeed change. There is now a token.dat file. That part of it works. How about that. So the only thing “busted” right now is having it force the change.
I have FOG_ENFORCE_HOST_CHANGES checked. Is there somewhere else this needs to be changed? Looks like I need FOG_TASK_FORCE_REBOOT too? I will try that.

@LibraryMark It is the
