@george1421 Thanks George -
After selecting deploy Image and entering username and password is when error occurs
can register devices no problem

will try last one first thing monday as I am being kicked out of the office - it’s weekend

@george1421 Morning George
the issue is resolved - it was the ‘-M’. There was no <space> at the beginning so iPXE clearly doesn’t like ‘-’ at the beginning. Thanks again

@george1421 Thanks once again for your help, and the others who took the time to offer their help.
I’ll let you know how I get on on Monday

@george1421 thank you George - just read the last bit of your post.
We use ‘-’ all the time in our image names but having thought about it - the last thing I did was create a custom image which started with ‘M-’, looks like I may have made a massive typo and put ‘-M’ instead. Will log on remotely over the weekend and check. If that is the case how easy is it to change the image name ? I assume that apart from the image folder name there are also references in the DB.

@Tom-Elliott
Hi Tom, most of our hostnames have a - in them as FOG is automatically naming them PC-** when they are first registered if we need to take an image from a new type of terminal. This issue happens when trying to deploy to terminals not registered on FOG. As stated in my original post we have been using it without any issue for 2 years to apply OEM images before dispatch

@Junkhacker multiple device from multiple manufacturers

@Tom-Elliott it is any machine we connect - I have tried 3 different manufacturers

@Sebastian-Roth I did using the mac of the server and I get the same output

@Junkhacker Nothing has changed
