@Tom-Elliott ah, that would work! Sorry, the documentation is such a mish-mash that it’s hard to find answers for some of this stuff!

@Tom-Elliott I believe it would be very simple to add a check in for this though, not all of us have the luxury of dedicated hardware for gold images!

The client could check HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Setup for AuditInProgress - and if that matches then it can pause any tasks.

If you have the FOG client installed in an image and you boot a host into audit mode, and still have something like active directory join active for that host, the client will ignore the fact that it’s in audit mode and join the machine to the domain!

I’ve not tested it, but I assume that it will also try and deploy any snap-in’s configured also.

IMHO when in Audit mode the client should be in a paused state, and not respond to tasks.

Hi All,

I’ve recently deployed FOG into it’s own subnet - and things are working great there where FOG is allowed to run it’s own DHCP server.

However I’d like to start moving machines out onto other subnets, which we manage via Windows DHCP Server.

I’ve configured Option 66 and 67, as well as option 150 (hoping that would fix things!) but the machine boots from the network and gets to asking for a TFTP server. You specify one, and it times out, then says chainloading failed.

Loving FOG so far by the way, but getting this to work will avoid us having to manually re-configure boot order options (as windows seems to happily chuck itself at the start of the boot order all the time!).

TIA

Alexis
