Woops EDIT.

My DHCP server IP is different from my router too.

During the install when you are prompted with -

Would you like to setup a router address for the DHCP Server? [Y/n]
Choose: Y and enter the IP Address of your router.

and

Would you like to use the FOG Server for DHCP Service? [y/N]
Choose: N

You can edit the fog settings after the install. They are located in /fog/.fogsettings

In a way, Fog doesn’t really need to know where you DHCP server is but the DHCP server needs to know where FOG is located. Scope options 66 and 67

The .fogsettings doesn’t contain any info about your DHCP serveralt text

I don’t see the file, I have tested it on my desktop and I do see it should I just transfer the file to the VM. Also,

This statement confuses me a bit. We are still talking about usb booting into ipxe right? The file is on the fog server in the /tftpboot directory. Its called ipxe.efi. If the /tftpboot directory is not there you can search for the file with sudo find / -name ipxe.efi But it should be in the /tftpboot directory.

You can get an older version from the github site too. But its best to get it from your fog server. https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/tree/master/packages/tftp

FOG onto Ubuntu running as a VM.

@Dv27842 said in Unable to change IP for FOG Server installation on Ubuntu Server 18.04:

I have tried to change the IP address to a static IP address that is currently on my sandbox, but it will not keep the changes

Please give us more details. Where exactly did you try to change the IP? Within Ubuntu? Which file did you edit? What did it look like before?

I can imagine you were editing the wrong file. Ubuntu 16.04 network config is different than Ubuntu 18.04, see here: https://www.ostechnix.com/how-to-configure-ip-address-in-ubuntu-18-04-lts/

Synology NAS

Setting this up is fairly advanced! You are better off just using a simple setup with just one FOG server (including it’s own storage) in a VirtualBox I’d say. Play with this and when you are ready take the next step.
