@george1421 Yes, problem solved!

Thank you very much! It worked
I had to use this repository, though: https://github.com/wayneworkman/MakeFogMobile
The one you mentioned had some files missing and the installer returned an error because of that.

Thanks again!

Server

• FOG Version: 1.3.0-RC-21
• OS: CentOS 7

Description

I need to move a Laptop with FOG installed into an existing offline environment so I need to change the IP address of the FOG server after the initial installation.
I tried to follow the wiki article https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Change_FOG_Server_IP_Address

Of course, I lose connectivity after step 1. (change OS IP address)
Step 3 says to rerun the installer which seems to get stuck without internet connection.

I then tried to setup an additional wireless interface to get around the connectivity problem but next thing was the installer stalling at the database backup step. I undid the changes I made in steps 1 and 2 of the wiki article. The installer ran fine then but now I am back to square one

What do I need to do to setup the FOG server in a way so I can use it in a preconfigured offline environment?

Thanks for your help!

It’s a 2008 R2 DHCP server.
Joe’s suggestion is a great idea. I’ll try that!
Thanks again!

OK, too bad it can’t be done by the FOG client… I am not exactly a script kid…
thanks for pointing me into the right direction.

Let’s say I want to deploy 50 clients with Windows XP.
Host names should be C01 - C50, IP addresses should be fixed 10.0.0.1 - 10.0.0.50.
How do I set the IPs? Is that even possible with FOG?

Yes, I am aware XP it’s not supported by MS anymore. We still need to use it.
Sorry if that’s been asked before… I couldn’t find anything using the forum search.
Thanks.
