@tom-elliott I am not quite sure what was wrong. I was working with someone else here on the forums on trying to do the automation and he had me run a script on mysql which ended up messing up a few things (accident). I was trying to work with the persistent groups piece. I ended up having to do a restore of the FOG server and that’s when the issues happened. I think I just had some duplicate entries somehow once I did the restore.

I look forward to a new GUI layout! You guys are rock stars!

@chris-whiteley Why not just put a fog storage node on the other side of the link. Then you wouldn’t run the risk of over committing your WAN. You can define a specific replication bandwidth. That IS something that fog can manage. You could even use an older dual core desktop computer as a FOG storage node. FOG Servers don’t need a lot of resources.

Based on the complexity requirements alone, this isn’t something easily done. Though depending on the version of FOG you’re using, you could create a crontab that could lookup all your hosts, see which are set to join the domain, and add any snapins you want automatically. You can even use the same principle during a deploy task through the use of postdownload scripts. Check if ad is to be used, if so, set the snapin for that host, and schedule that snapin task, then complete.

Of course i’m talking complex stuff to think about. But ultimately it’s not impossible, but it’s not automated in fog. Complexity level, i think, would be around a 6 or 7 on a 10 base scale meaning it’s not simple by any means, but it’s also not too hard. There’s some information on the use of the api system (assuming you’re using a version of fog with the api stuff) floating around the forums.

Create that in inventory, and after the machines join the domain from the Fog Client, it’ll find em in the collection and deploy! It’s that easy!

I guess lets start with 2 questions.
What version of FOG are you using? On the T3620 are you using the built in RAID controller and have the disks in a RAID array? (I have a T3610 so I’m familiar with the model).

Or here was another thought…

Maybe we can set the “Join to group” option so that when a particular new machine gets joined to a group, it automatically pulls down the group settings for that group. (IE AD OU stuff)?

I actually figured out that it was neither of those files! The /var/www/index.html has moved to /var/www/html/index.html so I added a file that just had this bit of code in it:

[CODE]<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv=“Refresh” content=“0; URL=fog/index.php”>
</head>
</html>
[/CODE]

and now it redirects! Please pass this on as it is a nice feature

[quote=“Jim Holcomb, post: 32006, member: 15162”]Buehler? Anyone? Guys, I have seen multiple posts on here about this issue. Do we have any idea what’s going on, or when a fix might be in order?[/quote]

There are two places you probably need to check.

When you install fog we set a random password for the linux side’s fog user.

This password is then the password that is supposed to be set for Storage Management and your relevant storage node. This can be changed on the linux side with a few commands:
[code]sudo passwd fog[/code]
Enter your password twice and remember it
Log into the FOG GUI and set this username and password in
Storage Management->All Storage Nodes-><YOUR STORAGENODE>->Management User and Management Password.

Then goto:
FOG Configuration (? Icon)->FOG Settings->TFTP Server->FOG_TFTP_FTP_USERNAME and FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD and set the same username/password pair.

Then test.

To make absolutely sure it’s not a permissions issue run:
[code]chown -R fog:root /tftpboot
chown -R fog:root /images
chmod -R 777 /images[/code]
