That was never checked for me… Could that be why the new client was not working? The more you know…

Ok Thanks for all assistance Wayne. I will continue using legacy since its working and I need to keep moving forward with summer work as well.

Ok I thought I had missed the decimal as well… yes I was using .8.4 client on said machine and it will not join the domain on that client continually retries but always returns password or username error.

When you say new client do you mean the one .84 version that came with svn 3530? I was using that one intitially and I saw in the log file that it kept trying every few minutes but was giving me the username password error.

This was the point I decided to reinstall legacy client and it went right through without changing any passwords etc.

If I am reading right it sounds like you are saying I need fresh builds without ever having the legacy client?

I have got about 13 different machines maybe a few more that I would rather not have to do full rebuilds and updates on

But as you described I did deploy from .32 and then just did my updates to all machine and was planning to reupload to svn 3530 I did a fresh linux build and brought nothing over.

I have tried everything I have read here about issues with this. Tried my main administrator account and its password tried the secondary account for joining AD and neither work. I was using the latest .84 fog service during all these reboots and tests. Here is the setup with new client

DOMAIN\Username I also tried just username
Password

I decided I would pull the legacy service I had on another machine and reinstall it. Computer immediately joins the domain with my secondary account. Here is legacy client where it just booted up the machine and did it.

I am generally ok. I can google my way to what I need. Its just hard navigating directories so I leave my terminal up in a spot thats got me to where I need to be to make the changes. The kernel you had was clean and no extra garbage on the screen during boot up. Do you by chance have a good site I could check out to learn about creating my own kernels so that I can customize them for our set of Dells?

Thanks again for the help

You are the man Tom. It went through the whole process without local_softirq_pending 08 error and crashing. I don’t know much about linux so I was just happy to get the file in the right directory. Still rebooting but I think I am in business

I was reluctant to upgrade FOG from .30 because everything was working great for me. I bit the bullet and did an upgrade this year and have been having handful of issues. The main issue I am having is with the Dell Vostro 3500 laptops. Everytime I try to image this style laptop I get local_softirq_pending 08 errors and my process crashes/reboots or just hangs. I have been trying many things from swapping back to the .29 init.gz file tried the .30 init.gz file. I have been trying older kernels and I can’t solve this issue and I cannot image any of these laptops anymore.

Has anyone seen this before or offer me any advice as to how to fix it. I am not well versed in linux but given commands to run I can make that happen.

Thanks
