Yes thats fine Buddy, i wonder that wakeonlan from etherwake package functions and the wol function of FOG not. Must be another mechanism how WOL is working. I will check some things as soon as i have time. Perhaps i made a mistake, but i think not.

Hi chad-bisd
hit-and-miss success with WoL means it does’nt function each time properly?
I read something that earlier versions of fog used etherwake -> wakeonlan.
Wakeonlan functioned properly within the virtual machine.
So why does’nt FOG use it anymore?
It would be a pitty if i have to turn on each pc manually. Or writing circumstantional scripts to “implement” the function.
Is there any hint how to wake up the machines which are managed to groups?
Thx.

Is there a release date planned for fog 0.33? or at least a new beta download?

Hm,

can somebody proof that WOL functions with FOG 0.32 without being installed on a virtual machine?
I want to locate if it is an error due VMware or a common FOG error.
Perhaps i have to adjust settings in VMware…

Thank you.

Hello,

I have installed FOG 0.32 under Ubuntu 12.04.1 Server on a ESXi 5.1 machine.
I tried to wake up physical machines in FOG Management. Doesn’t function.
After a lot of searching i installed etherwake on Ubuntu.
And used wakeonlan to manually wake up the physical machine. -> Functions correctly.
So it must be an error in FOG using the WOL function from it’s wol.php.
Is that a right analysis?
I find no information to wol.php or the internal FOG WOL function.
Idon’t know what to do now. Perhaps the source of the error is another.
Can somebody please help? It is a project for my ‘exam’.

Some more information.
The physical machine is a DELL Presision 390 with a Broadcom 57xx NIC.

The settings of WOL Path, Host and so on are correct.
A wake on lan try with browser address pointing to wol.php&[MAC] doesn’t function.

It must be the fog wol function, because it functions on the same system with etherwake wakeonlan.
