Or try the new compiled “HostNameChanger.dll” from jbod (Thread: [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/fog-1-2-0-product-key-changer.12510/#post-42958[/url])
Replace the file on the client(s) -> restart Fog Service.

I would suggest to remove the OEM Recovery partition and install a clean Windows 7 with the newest drivers.
Did you checked your AD Settings in the fog config ?
e.g. Username without “AD” if you use Fog > 1.x .

Did you check the Active Directory Settings ?
There seems to be a wrong character.
Of course the way via snapin would be the alternative.
I just wanted to try the clientupdater service for the first time and exactly the required file was forgotten in the sourcode ;(
[quote=“Carsten Jensen, post: 35683, member: 3876”]
So hostname changer works… but gives the wrong name.[/quote]
What is the name of the client in the Host Management ?
[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 35692, member: 7271”]I believe it was a check missing in the code for the client.[/quote]
So ClientUpdater.dll need to be edited/fixed?
I do not want to create a new thread so i add my similar issue on this.
Related to this topic [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/windows-7-activation-proposal.10745/#post-35495[/url]
i want to exchange the “HostnameChange.dll” on all my clients.
So i added the modified dll to the ClientUpdater Configuration:
[IMG]http://abload.de/img/22-08-201411_31_21-foswqyw.png[/IMG]
Activated Clientupdater globally and on the client configuration.
Rebooted the client and checked the fog logfile:

What i’m missing is the check for the “HostnameChange.dll” file.
Is this a config issue or is the check missing in the code ?
[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 35497, member: 7271”]
I’m sorting all the stuff by the first column. So in the case of Login history, the “Action” is the first column. I can see about fixing that for the host login stuff though.[/quote]
That would be great. I am surprised that this was not noticed by any other beefore.
I just noticed that the tables are dynamic so with the list can be sorted by a click on a column header 
[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 35497, member: 7271”]
The Snapins can be sorted by the name rather than the id, though i though that was how it was operating.[/quote]
I have arround 150 SnapIns and selecting a few for a deployment take some “unnecessary” time.
I would even suggest to make that list box a little bit bigger, e.g. at least 6 visible lines instead on only 4.
Or it is possible to maximize the list dynamic ?
@Tom:
I tried to copy my windows 7 keys from a another db to the new column in the host table.
The result looks like this:
[IMG]http://abload.de/img/19-08-201417_55_33-ediekmw.png[/IMG]
Then i inserted the key directly in the webgui and the key looks like this in phpmyadmin:
[IMG]http://abload.de/img/19-08-201417_52_51-clmuu3l.png[/IMG]
It looks like the key will be saved in a crypted way? Is that correct ?
Great informations!
Would love to see some new fog_service features 
[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 35481, member: 7271”]Pretty much, yes.[/quote]
Ok i will give it a try.
#EDIT#
Added the WIn7 Key to the Host details and removed the serial from the client.
Replaced HostnameChange.dll and rebooted client.
After reboot the client was activated again. Perfect !!
Big Thanks to Jbob and Tom.
I hava only one suggestion:
Is it possible to write some informations about the activationprocess to the fog logfile ?
e.g. if the activations fails and why? Or it was succesfull.
Hi,
don’t know if it comes from the update from 0.32 to 1.2 or it is a “feature” of 1.2.
In 0.32 the login history was sorted by time. Now it is sorted by Action?
[IMG]http://abload.de/img/19-08-201415_31_49-clbcfw7.png[/IMG]
In my opinion the ‘old’ sorting by time looks better and is easier to read.
Is it possible to change it back?
(Or which line need to changed ?)
It is same with the order of the snapins.
It would be much easier it the snapins are sorted by name instead of the snapinID.
[IMG]http://abload.de/img/19-08-201414_54_26-edmzfw0.png[/IMG]
@Tom: so if i’m using fog 1.2 i only need to replace the “HostnameChange.dll” created by Jbob to run the win7 activation during the hostchanger task ?
[quote=“Junkhacker, post: 35270, member: 21583”]2. if you don’t want to keep the data for logging purposes, try truncating the tasks, stapinTasks, and snapinJobs tables[/quote]
This fix the issue ! THANKS !!!
I deleted all entries this morning without success - Truncate the tables did it.
[quote=“Junkhacker, post: 35270, member: 21583”]
4. i believe we are switching to all enabled for imported hosts for the next release[/quote]
Ok! Is there a way i can activate all services for each client without selecting each client via webgui?
On 0.32 we had enabled all services in the client settings but disabled the unused by the global config.
Issues 1,3 & 5 solved.
Added the solutions in the first post.

[B]2. Snapin Deployment [/B][B][COLOR=#339966]FIXED[/COLOR][/B]
The main issue i’m struggeling at the moment is the not working snapin deployment.
Snapin is assigend but the client did not catch it from the server.
[IMG]http://abload.de/img/snapin_1zuk8q.png[/IMG]
I upload the log file from the client: [url]http://pastebin.com/8JCU8Uzp[/url]
For comparison here is the snapinclient part of a old 0.32 logfile:
[CODE]13.08.2014 14:08 FOG::SnapinClient Attempting to connect to fog server…

What i noticed is the missing line/step: “FOG::SnapinClient No Tasks found for: F0:1F:AF:47:85:75|08:00:27:00:B4:78”
As info: i only updated the fog “server” not the fog client. (From the last change date there should be no changes right?)
Is there anything i can check to fix the issue ?

Fog 1.20
Ubuntu 12.10 (x86)
PHP 5.4.6
.fogsettings : [url]http://pastebin.com/2wBHZeED[/url]
So far the new fog version looks great. Thanks to all involved developers
@JBob: very nice customization. We have the same activation ‘problem’, but using a autoit script which runs after each deployment.
I would be great if this can be handeld by fog as well.
Which version are you using? Are this the only changes which are needed?
