In the hook file:

    public function setTypeFilter($arguments)
    {
//        $arguments['types'] = array(990,991);
        $arguments['types'] = explode(',', self::getSetting('FOG_USER_FILTER'));
    }

Hi Tom,

I was thinking that, maybe, is better create a new globalStting when you install the plugin, in this way, you can setup it dinamically.

insert into globalSettings (settingKey,settingDesc,settingValue,settingCategory) VALUES ('FOG_USER_FILTER','Esto es una prueba de configuración', '990,991','General Settings');

The insert will be done by the plugin, this is an example.

And the hook can read this filter info to show the users.

@Sebastian-Roth thanks for the info. I will see what do now :)

Hi,
This question is for the developers.

I am trying to make some changes in the AccessControl Plugin, the problem with this plugin is that only can assign users that are local (uType = 0 or uType = 1) because the users that LDAP plugin creates are uType = 990 or 991, and those ones don’t appear in the list.

I want to know who or where the code decides not shows the uType 990 or 991 users

accesscontrolmanagementpage.class.php

Route::listem('user');
        $items = json_decode(
            Route::getData()
        );
        $items = $items->users;
        $getter = 'usersnotinme';
        $returnData = function(&$item) use (&$getter) {
            $this->obj->get($getter);
            if (!in_array($item->id, (array)$this->obj->get($getter))) {
                return;
            }
            $this->data[] = array(
                'user_id' => $item->id,
                'user_name' => $item->name,
                'friendly' => $item->display
            );
        };
        array_walk($items, $returnData);

Hi again,

Only for give more information about this in a huge scenario. In our case the FOGPingHosts service give 4 hours and 30 minutes, more or less, to do ping to all clients.

Capture of the traffic in one client:

I can confirm that works fine

The installer, I am trying now to deploy one partition and seems that works fine ;)

I think that I will disable it because I have done a tcpdump to see the traffic in the port 445 and the performance is not good. We are very far of 10 hosts per second. 1 hosts per second :(

I wiil wait to 1.6 version and see :)

My sugestion :)

Don’t use a service to check the status. Is not very useful and eficient. If you want to know the status of one client, you want to know at the moment and not the status of 5 minutes ago.

The old version way was more eficient: after the search and a little timeout, the js script did a ping only over the found clients. Can not call to the Ping class method execute after the search?

pinghosts.class.php

foreach ((array)$hostids as $index => &$hostid) {
                if (false === array_key_exists($index, $hostips)
                    || false === array_key_exists($index, $hostnames)
                ) {
                    continue;
                }
                $ip = $hostips[$index];
                if (filter_var($ip, FILTER_VALIDATE_IP) === false) {
                    $ip = self::resolveHostname($hostnames[$index]);
                }
                if (filter_var($ip, FILTER_VALIDATE_IP) === false) {
                    $ip = $hostnames[$index];
                }
                unset($hostnames[$index], $hostips[$index]);
                $ping = self::getClass('Ping', $ip)
                    ->execute();
                self::getClass('HostManager')
                    ->update(
                        array('id' => $hostid),
                        '',
                        array('pingstatus' => $ping)
                    );

Hi Tom,

And how many time takes FOGPingHosts to check the status of 8192 hosts? If FOGPingHost service checks all the hosts and takes 1 second per hosts (for example, then 8192 seconds=136 minutes … Maybe in my case or for huge environments his service is not very useful.

Maybe if the status is checked using other way, for example in the old version (0.30 and early version) the status was checked when you made a search, on demand, will be more useful and practice.
