Do you have a VOIP phone system? If so is it on a separate VLAN?

Typically you see this error when you are using the same vlan for VOIP and for imaging.

look at your FOG server and see if there is a folder listed in /images that matches the name of your image.

If so what happens if you open a terminal and run the following command

[code]
sudo chmod -R 0777 /images
[/code]

If there is no folder listed in the /images folder (other than dev this is the temp folder FOG uses to store files) please run the command above and try to upload your image again, is the host still asking for the image to be uploaded?

Dude… you’re awesome thanks for letting us know the last version where Domain Join worked for you!

Sorry I can’t be of more help, I set up a server at each of my locations, but that works out to my benefit because each building uses the same base, but this lets me tweak the settings to better fit that novell context.

[quote=“Christian Nichols, post: 37570, member: 2195”]I read on another thread that you use the DNSMASQ technique for FOG - I followed the wiki guide and set it up here as well. I’ve set the ip-helper/dhcp relay up to point back to the FOG server; however, it still cannot boot to the FOG menu because everytime iPXE loads it tries to pull the boot.php file from the wrong IP (much like the above result).

Should the dhcp-relay/ip-helper be different on each VLAN (I’m using FOG’s respective VLAN IP)

Any ideas?[/quote]

I’ve never had success (in my messed up network) booting to my fog server from another VLAN. I know that with dnsmasq it is technically possible but I don’t have any experience in doing so.

My network stems from one building and is dished out to each of the other buildings. Each building is a VLAN itself.

I would assume (and you know what happens when you assume) that the ip address would be the same across all VLANs, the ip helper is just to help point that VLAN back to your fog server ip.

Anyone worried about this can run this one liner to see if you are vulnerable or not.

Run this from a linux/osx box:

(replace 1.2.3. with your subnet)

for i in $(seq 1 253);do echo 1.2.3.$i;curl -s [url]http://www.globalshellshock.com/?search=1.2.3.$i|grep[/url] -B5 “Global Shellshock - The”|grep center;done

It’s a little messy, but it does what it needs to do. Keep your eye out for a line that says “VULNERABLE” rather than “NOT VULNERABLE”.

i.e. if your subnet is 255.255.0.0 then for 1.2.3. you would place 255.255.0.

This could be because of the settings in the managed switch, if it is a cisco switch have you followed the recommended guide to verify the correct settings are enabled?

[url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/cisco-programming-guide.10856/[/url]

PLEASE NOTE: I am not a cisco engineer, and I never claimed to be. These settings will work with FOG, if you are familiar with Cisco, please try enabling and disabling settings and documenting the process to share with the rest of us if you find a perfect set up

This is just a basic installation that will get fog running.

I have had the BEST luck using unmanaged equipment though.

I don’t think your NIC is the issue. I use the same model of NIC in my fogserver and I do not have issues.

It is very odd the issue you are facing, please check on our discussion in your inbox.

Personally, I prefer the Debian derivatives, but [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/install-fog-on-arch-linux.4178/[/url]

I use the Unattend.xml to expand my partition to the end of the disk.

Thanks for the heads up, in the future, can you post these in the BUG section?

Someone driving by might think there is a security concern or something if it’s posted in the general section

does this help any? [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/multicasting-over-vlans-get-stuck-at-please-wait.5436/#post-14158[/url]

Sorry I don’t know anything about fortigate

php files in Ubuntu 14.04 are located in:

/etc/php5/cli/php.ini

tftp boot file locations in Ubuntu 14.04

/var/lib/tftp

Sure you got it.

The way I handle my drivers is, When I get a machine in that already has windows installed, I run a program called DriverGrabber
[url]http://integrator.professorcpu.net/index.php?addons&id=242[/url]

I usually create a folder on my virtual machine under the C drive called “drivers”.

I then set up a folder for each model and put the driver grabber folders in there. This way there is a nice neat structure so if you need to manually apply the driver for the nic card, you may do so by looking in the corresponding folder.

Then I use a registry key to associate the folder with the windows installation:

In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version click on “DevicePath” and enter “C:\Drivers” (remember the entries must be separated by a semicolon).

Alternatively you can add the path (C:/Drivers) to the environment variable path under My computer, Properties, Advanced Settings then at the bottom environment variables.

I do not know that this is the correct way to install drivers, but I have had a lot of success in doing this with Tangent machines which use MSI mainboard, Intel graphics and Processor, and Realtek Audio and Network cards.

Good luck!

Not to waste a post, I hate doing this. But I am in the same boat as Vincent here. My Gig equipment ( so long as I keep the 10/100 out of the way) I can push almost 5 GB/min and sometimes 6.5, but that’s very rare with NO ONE in my building but me.

I have some labs that have not been upgraded and they still sit at 10/100 and I only image them in sets of 10 (30 computers 3 sessions) to keep the load down. I also take my fog machine to this lab to take care of it. I know this isn’t the case in some installs. Just letting you know how I deal with the issue

Keep testing and let us know, we will do what we can to help you to fix the issue.

copy the information out of your log file and type [ code ] (without the spaces) paste your log file here then type [/ code ] (without the spaces) this is the easiest way to include your log file information. Alternatively, there is an “Upload a file button” right next to the “post reply button”.

I believe he is referring to the applications he installs himself, not a tool from FOG.

you may try editing the settings in [code]/etc/php5/cli/php.ini[/code]

Glad it was of use

FOG doesn’t have any financial backing form big corporations so we don’t really have hardware specifications or recommendations

I can tell you my network is a Novell Netware 6.5 network, I don’t recommend Novell to ANYONE!!! And it’s not that the product is crappy, or the servers suck, its that when you fall behind you get left behind. It’s very hard to find anyone that services Novell in our area, let alone an out dated version. Now when we have problems and we contact any dealer, they look at our OS and they say “You’re OS is out of date, I’m sure that the latest update has fixed this issue for you, please update your server OS for further assistance”. Novell also has a really bad habit of selling off the management tools that they provide you with and this causes problems later, or stops supporting tools all together… I.e. ConsoleOne, iManager just to name a few.

I would, however, recommend some good switch gear. We use Cisco managed switches and Dlink managed switches. When it comes to labs most of the switches are Asus unmanaged gear, and for classrooms it is the same.

I would recommend at least gig speed equipment, if you have anything 10/100 base this could cause a bottle neck and has even crashed network gear.

As far as a server goes, FOG is linux based, that means the most mundane of machines can run this awesome technology. I would recommend using something at least Duo Core or higher, and of course lots of ram (2 or 4 gigs is more than enough).

I know this is really general, but FOG wasn’t built to ONLY run on AMD equipment, or ONLY intel equipment. It’s meant to be versatile so that even aged server equipment can suffice. I have in the past used our out going technology, but I quickly switched to some newer grade equipment (nothing spectacular, it would work as an AutoCad machine if I loaded windows on it, Duo Core Processor and 2 gigs of ram) and for my small imaging projects this server is quite the work horse!
