@Tom-Elliott Phew, you weren’t wrong when you said it was a bit overkill. I’m a bit apprehensive about doing anything that I can’t understand what is happening to the FOG server. For example, if something breaks with this script, I don’t know exactly where to fix it.

I also still don’t have a bare metal backup of my FOG server yet, and I can’t afford to have it down, especially at the beginning of the school year (I work for a Public School). Possibly once I have a backup of it, and when school is out for a break or something, I’ll return to this and attempt it.

Unless you’ve got an easier idea to change those defaults, I’ll just put it on the back burner until further notice.

You need to use FOGCrypt to encrypt your AD password.

Install the client onto your golden machine, reboot a few times. When you see “hello fog client” in the C:\fog.log then you’re good to upload your image.

For clients to join, the AD stuff for the hosts need populated by checking the “join domain” check-mark for the target hosts. You also need pretty much all the service settings turned on as well for those hosts.

If you’ve already done these things, we need to see your log.
