@joe-schmitt Thanks again for taking the time to remote in and sort out the FQDN vs. IP issue. I didn’t realize that when the FOG installer asked for the IP address for the server that a fully-qualified domain name was also acceptable and even preferable.
I just wanted to follow up here and say that I upgraded from 1.5.0-RC-11 to RC-12 and installed the new 0.11.13 FOG Client, and it seems to have solved the other problem I was having with tunnel MACs. I finally have the FOG Client talking to the server and accepting tasks, so thank you for that! Looking forward to testing it out and seeing if it can solve my organization’s configuration management problems!
One small bug report: as a quick test to see if the FOG Client would accept orders from the server, I set the auto-logout timeout to 1 minute for the host, thinking this would be a fast way to validate things. Nothing happened, and I thought things were still broken until I read in the wiki that the minimum acceptable timeout value is 5 minutes. Setting it to 5 minutes then led to the expected results.
I’d like to suggest making it not possible to set values of 1, 2, 3, or 4 in the server’s web UI if they will not be respected by the client, plus adding something to the tooltip help text mentioning the minimum of 5 minutes.
Thanks again!
