Removed .fogsettings and re-ran the setup script. Worked.

Thank you!

Sorry I can’t be of more help, I set up a server at each of my locations, but that works out to my benefit because each building uses the same base, but this lets me tweak the settings to better fit that novell context.

Another possibility is that if you are using HP ProCurve switches, the Spanning Tree protocol could be causing the delays which will cause pxe to timeout. I am not sure why reverting to an older bios will help this, but maybe they simply have a longer timeout period.

TRY turning spanning tree OFF for the switch that the system you are wanting PXE boot is connected to and see if that helps. If it does, then this could be an option for when you need to reimage a room. It is probably best to ensure Spanning Tree is re-enabled when finished to ensure there is some protection from network loops.

Fog 0.33 is in active development, the bug tracking thread can be found here:

the default username is set under WindowsNT/Winlogon in the registry, for more info just google display last user registry (make sure your GPO doesn’t disable this)

I’m doing this and not getting a domain join. Any suggestions?

DOMAIN.local &

djm79, I will try that and it IS using the internet for some reason (the client machine). I have a real-time bandwidth monitor and as soon as the deployment begins the graph spikes (pretty much triples) and begins using 21Mb/s with the client’s IP being the culprit.

[/B]I’ll try at another location and/or hook the client & server directly to a switch and go from there.

We’re calling the company we outsourced running the wires and installed the switches in the buildings to see if they would know of any reason before I get my hands dirty into uncharted territory.

chad, I know! It’s killing me not knowing why this is happening pulls and handful of hair out.

Thanks for all the help - I’ll report back with my solution as soon as I find out the problem. Thanks again guys.
