I made backup copies before re-installing.
what do I need to do to restore fog-client communications?

Thanks!

Not an issue any longer sorry for the delayed post.

Here is a Video showing an example.

I prefer Centos so my instructions are based on Centos.

# yum update && yum install conspy

Follow the instructions here to modify the Init Image:
Modifying the Init Image

Once you have the init image extracted and mounted, add your ssh key.

cd /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir
cd root
mkdir .ssh
/bin/echo "==yoursshkeystringgoesbetweenthequotes==" >> .ssh/authorized_keys

copy Conspy to the image:

cp /usr/bin/conspy /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/bin
cp /usr/lib64/libncurses.so.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
cp /usr/lib64/libncurses.so.x.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
cp /usr/lib64/libncursesw.so.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
cp /usr/lib64/libncursesw.so.x.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
cp /usr/lib64/libtinfo.so.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
cp /usr/lib64/libtinfo.so.x.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64

replace x in libncurses++.so.x with the version of libcurses you have installed.
Follow the instruction on how to recompress the image and you’re done.

ssh to the PC and login as root.
run the conspy command to view the progress.

You can mark this as solved.
I ended up backing up my /var/www/html/fog/management/other/ssl/srvpublic.crt file backing up the database and removing /opt/fog, deleting the fog DB and reinstalling from scratch then importing host, images, users, snapins and other pertinent tables from the backup.

having issues with trying to upgrade from dev-brnach to working right now. I will update as soon as i get the upgrade resolved.
Thanks.

I ran the install like normal:

opened my fogserver webpage and got this:

@george1421

@george1421
