Could we have the web interface indicate that a storage node is correctly connected passwords match ect… maybe a green dot like the ping status when its added or listed in the all storage nodes list. A second indicator that all the images are in sync with the main repository.
Don’t forget that around SVN 3410 and up the storage node installer resets the storage password when run. It should display the new password at the end of the install.
We’re not using the new client yet I upgraded to SVN 3463 this morning which fixed the missing client issue.
Chrome has a special enterprise installer available here. Your runwith command is msiexec, the run with argument is /i and the command line switches are /qn.
He has 1.2 he is upgrading to SVN when it happens.
I try and keep a USB drive backup of the images offline as well as the configuration save to permit an easy rebuild from scratch if necessary. Most users update images rarely enough that this is not a huge burden.
It really depends on usage. How many clients, how many images, how large are your images, compression level, number of images sent at a time?
As I understand it 4 things need to match the Operating system password for the fog user, the storage management password and username fog, the tftp password under the web ui in fog settings and finally the storageftpuser / storageftppassword in the /opt/fog/.fogsettings file. After they all match restart the fog services or just reboot the server.
/silent should be in the Snapin Arguments field.
Maybe add that note to the wiki here and include the command to upgrade to release candidate as well as working branch for the less adventurous.
@Joe-Schmitt @Sebastian-Roth ok entered the ad password again for the new client cleared and re checked it for the problematic host and it is now working. When the new client first came out was the entry always plain text or did that get added in a later SVN maybe i had it encrypted from before?
@Sebastian-Roth Both client, fog server, and domain controller time settings match including time zone. My server password isn’t unusually exotic it is just Uppercase and lower case letters and numbers no special characters.

@sebastian-roth I have been busy with other things and finally revisited this issue. Recreating the certificate and tokens fixed my authentication problem I may have and AD join issue but will troubleshoot further before I open a new topic on it.
Two other things to check are the bios versions identical, and is secure boot on or off.
/silent should be in the Snapin Arguments field.
Also if you add the host to a group it will force the reset encryption button to appear in group management you can try that. This appears to be the same issue I am seeing in https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/10167/fog-client-fails-to-authenticate/11 but we haven’t got an answer there yet either but you can try some of the same steps yourself.
Then I think you need to try what @sudburr suggested and wipe the drive fully before imaging.
