This is what I get with the original HostnameChange.dll:

PS: had to split posts, as get a message that this was marked as spam by Askimet or something like that.

Much appreciated Tom, with powershell, first time I’ve used this, I was able to get the contents, seems log gets emptied at some point. This is what I see:

Error looks similar to [URL=‘http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/fog-hostnamechanger-padding-is-invalid-and-cannot-be-removed.1078/’]this thread[/URL].

Had an a.b.c style DOMAIN, Administrator user did not have domain name in front. Have triple checked I got the password correct. The user is “Administrator” i.e. with all permissions as of this moment, as I’m trying to debug one problem at a time.

Thanks! Have more. On [URL=‘http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/FOGCrypt’]the FOGCrypt page[/URL] I would like to point out that you can run FOGCrypt on Linux as well with:

[CODE]mono ./FOGCrypt.exe[/CODE]

If it complains about mscorlib.dll, run it as:

[CODE]MONO_PATH=/usr/lib/mono/4.5 mono ./FOGCrypt.exe[/CODE]

Sorry, found c:\fog.log, but it’s basically empty. Can I trigger HostNameChange.dll manually?

Yeah, the name was HostNameChange.dll. But didn’t work for me. Where is that fog.log talked about above? Couldn’t find this. Anyway to enable debugging to see if it at least gets activated and to check where it fails?

Is it possible to make a new hostnamechanger.dll available for download? I’m having problems too with connecting Windows 7 x64 clients. Haven’t checked for this particular message yet, but in case I have it, would be useful to give a new hostnamechanger.dll with default passphrase encryption a go.

Not sure if this is the right forum, but the wiki redirected me to the forums to request a login for the wiki. I’d like to make a few clarifications, for example firewall exceptions has:

[FONT=monospace][COLOR=#000000]netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name=“Fog Client” dir=in action=allow program=“C:\Program Files\FOG\FOGService.exe”[/COLOR][/FONT]

But for 64-bit that should be “Program Files (x86)” I believe. So copy/paste of that stuff needs some care.

Let me know if you need any other information fro me.

Possibly mentioned before, but as a first user, but the upload versus download terminology is initially extremely confusing. I’m setting up a 15 client network. Prepared my first PC, then tried to make a resizable image. That worked fine. However, this wouldn’t install on the 2nd PC as the hard disk was empty (no partition). So I wanted to change my image to be a full disk, non-resizable. After some issues, I managed to get things in a state where I selected “Download” in the web interface, instead of “Upload”, and wiped my first PC, so could start all over again!

Obviously download versus upload works if you’re on the client itself, but from the web interface these words work less well. May I suggest a slightly different terminology? I suggest: “Disk to image” and “Image to disk”. Or perhaps: “Host to image” or “Image to host”. These words don’t change meaning depending on whether you’re on the client or on the web interface.
