Hi all,

I finish my labo With Windows storage node with few problems of permission at first. Like the need to grant permission to create and delete files and [COLOR=#ff0000]DIRECTORY[/COLOR] on the ftp user (user filezilla).
At the end of the capture task, FOG needs to rename the image file. Then, if my storage path is:
c:\images
c:\images\ dev
With filezilla, I must create a user by giving all rights to c:\ , c:\images, and c:\images\dev to complete my lab.

Should I do the same thing for the user that I created on the NAS? because when I create, on the NAS, a user with RW on my share “images”, it’s not allow me to capture or deploy an image. I am forced to use the administrator account of my NAS to make this happen. So like with Filezilla, in my NAS the ftp user must have full access to the root ? (and i did not see this option in QNAP)

Thanks in advance

I will try Nagios why not, it’s a good idea ^^

that’s what I thought too for the disks information regarding of my tests

I finally finished my lab with the NAS by activating FTP service on NAS and by adding FTP user on it for management user (used at the “add starage node” step in WEB GUI). It’s a success !!

Also I enabled all my network for NFS, is it necessary to do it ? for capture or deployement task, the only one who needs access it’s the FOG server ? the PC’s don’t need ?

Last question ^^ : Does the SMB works too ?

I continue my test with Windows storage node …

Thanks all for your help

I thought that my error at the DISK Information would block me during capture/deployment.
I will continue my lab and I tell you if it works

The Disk informations should work if I connect to the NAS ?

Thanks for your help

I try many things to resolv my problem but nothing works
To isolate the NAS, I create a Windows storage node with NFS but always the same … (don’t have information disks in WEB FOG Interface)
I configured Windows NFS Server (ANSI code) with all the rights for all computers and the full access NTFS to evevryone and anonymous logon to my share c:/images.
I activate the GPO to permit the anonymous 's access in my share on Windows Server too
And Fillezilla with theses directory (and fog username/pwd used in management user) :

c:/
c:/images
c:/images/dev

At this step (add storage node), management user must be a NFS user ? If yes, there was not possibility to create one on the NAS.
I cannot connect my NAS’s storage directly in Web FOG interface, maybe I did not understand how it works…
This means that FTP must be enabled and use login/pwd configured for theses directory ?
But if I use ftp, can we say that we use here NFS? or it’s just for identifcation ?

Thank you in advance

the problem is that when I create a NFS share on my NAS, i only allow the access to my fog (192.168.1.50) but never create a user for that. At the creation of the share, before to activate NFS on it, it told me about the user (probably SMB permissions)…In doubt, I create on NAS, the same user fog/password used in FOG Web Interface (add storage node step)>>> it’s not better after creating this local user
But no, I dit not activate FTP on the NAS.

Can you say me what kind of account i have to put in “Management Username” ? (add the storage node step) :

Hi,

I have a little a problem on the “add storage step”, storage that I want to use to the NAS (qnap). I use NFS share, mounted on my FOG to /images with this command :
[LIST]
[]mount -t nfs 192.168.1.50:/master/images /images >>>>> Succes !
[/LIST]
I granted the following rights in this directory (mounted)
[LIST]
[]touch /images/.mntcheck
[]touch /images/dev/.mntcheck
[]chmod -R 777 /images
[]chown fog:root /images
[]chown fog:root /images/dev
[/LIST]
My /etc/exports file was not move with default content :
[LIST]
[]/images (ro,sync,no_wdelay,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=1)
[]/images/dev (rw,sync,no_wdelay,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=2)
[/LIST]

And I have all the rights to create or remove files in my /images mounted (to the NAS)
But when I add the storage in the FOG Web Interface like this :
/master/images = Path of my NAS’s share
192.168.1.50 = IP of NAS
Username/password = default (tftp user)

it says me an error (Failed to connect to) in Disk Information…
So we cannot specify directly our NAS in the “add storage node” or bad configurations ?

Thanks in advance
