    • RE: "List hosts" page FOG does not ping Linux hosts

      FOG 1.2 on Ubuntu 14.04. Yes pinging is allowed,but from what I can tell, FOG doesn’t “Ping” at all. It does a probe on port 445 of the hosts instead of a ping. It says in the comments in the code (Pingclass) that a real system ping would take up too much system resources. So Linux hosts with nothing running on port 445 show up as connection refused, even though they allow ping.

      I found a workaround though.

      When I installed samba on the linux host, it shows up with a green dot on the “lists hosts” page just like it should. The samba package includes the smbd deamon which listens on port 445.

    • "List hosts" page FOG does not ping Linux hosts

      Am I right in determining that on the “List hosts” page FOG does not ping Linux hosts, because the Ping class only looks at the NetBios port? My linux hosts show up at “connection refused.”
