[quote=“Paul Trevathan, post: 9845, member: 3006”]Hi Brian,
This is looking good, just to confirm is this on a windows 2012 server x64 running VMware of Ubuntu Desktop 12.04.1 x64.
Cheers

I tested everything on 2008 R2 x64 running Hyper-V and once that all worked i migrated everything over to real machines. the server 2008 R2 was a in use as a DHCP server/WDS/… and the fog machine was put on a T110 II server with 14 gigs of ram
yup i know how you feel. no worries and have a good Christmas.
[quote=“brian_, post: 9719, member: 2729”]I modified my default to the correct menu and to allow booting of .iso images (windows 7)
but when i select the option in the pxe menu it just quits the pxe boot and restarts the machine.
any help would be nice, but i’ll be testing more tomorrow.[/quote]
fixed. had a capital letter in the filename. lawl
i’m also trying to boot to a 3.1 gig image to a machine that has 4 gigs of ram but it always errors out. any suggestions?

where are the triggers you can select.
START “Adobe Reader” /wait “install_reader11_en_mssd_aih” [COLOR=#ff0000]/sAll /rs /msi EULA_ACCEPT=YES[/COLOR]
This isn’t working with the current version of adobe. and I’m going to do this with other programs so i need to know
you can make whatever accounts you want but if you leave none you won’t be able to log on. try doing the sysprep though the the ui. just type sysprep.exe
if that doesn’t work post you unattend file because something is wrong in it

sysprep remove all your user data the specific drivers and makes that machine like you just bought it from the factory. as for a guide I on’t know a good one. I’ve just had to do it myself. if you want I might have another step by step on syspreping and all that other stuff. if you want to know the syntax of sysprep type sysprep.exe /?
I am working on making this step by step bigger and better but this is what i have for now. if you have any suggestions or you would like to add something please post it here. I needed to make this guide start at a very basic level so if you wait a little longer i make more in more advanced topics.
If there are spelling or grammar errors please forgive me. 25 pages is a lot to type in 1 day
these pdf documents cover:
Installing and Configuring a Fog Server
Basic information about hosts and groups
Making Tasks
Uni-cast and Multi-cast
Advanced Preparing of the Windows Image
note: this is not the final version. and this is made for a classromm step by step.
note: it had to be split into multiple PDF document because the file size was to big
note: I will update the Ubuntu pictures tomorrow. when i first made the step by step i did it with 10.4.4 LTS but i virtualized the fog server and decided to do it with 12.4 LTS. same steps just different pics

where is your DHCP server or what are you using for DHCP
oh i forgot to add. when the network crashes the fog transfer still works. but none of the other computers can communicate, at all.
i’m going to try to describe this the best that i can but there are a LOT of details
When i deploy a multicast to just 2 computers it starts sending and transferring at 4.5 Gigs a minute.
about 1 minutes into the transfer no one has network connectivity.
I unplug the Ethernet cable from the fog server and it takes about 5 minutes for the network to start working again.
Is there a solution for this. as in, is there a way to tell the fog server to only send the packets to the computers listed on the multicast list. and not sending it on 232.
if i need to describe anything else just post
also is there an easy way to switch eth0 with eth1? i need it on 1 and not 0
yes thank you very veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery veryvery very much
