@george1421 Being a relatively new FOG user I never even thought about going into the web interface and pre-configuring a client. Because the registration is done for me during the initial PXE phase where you enter the hostname, image ID#, etc. this is how I’ve been doing it thus far. Now that I’m looking at it I see exactly what you mean about going in and pre-creating the HOST. This will take care of my problem. Thank you very much for your help!!

Remotely imaging a laptop using FOGposted in FOG Problems
My company has offices in about 10 different countries around the world, one of which is in Tokyo, Japan. That particular office is relatively small (about 20 users) so we do not have on-site IT support there. We do, however, have FOG servers set up for each of our off-sites. Due to the language barrier there it has proved virtually impossible to walk a user through the process of booting to PXE, entering the desired hostname, etc. during the imaging setup. I’d like to know if there is a way to remotely do this via the web interface on their FOG server. Ideally the user would boot the device to PXE, and the rest would be done automatically using the settings in the Web interface.
Thank you in advance,

RE: Please add ability to renumber images via the GUIposted in FOG Problems
In the Web GUI the images are numbered 1…2…3…4…etc. every time you upload a new image. We’ve deleted many images over time and now my images are numbered 79…84…85…86…and 89. I’d like to be able to reset these to 1.2.3.4.5.

Import / Export Images across network to other fog servers on network via GUIposted in Feature Request
Another wishlist item… We have fog servers in several countries, but all images are built at the home office in the U.S. Currently I am uploading the image to our FOG server and then using SCP from command line in Linux to export the image(s) to other FOG servers on our network. It would be cool to have functionality built in to export or import images these images via GUI rather than using the terminal or an external product like WinSCP.
As always, Thanks in advance.

Please add ability to renumber images via the GUIposted in FOG Problems
Greetings all,
For me it would be helpful to be able to renumber images. I have 10 fog servers in 6 countries - We update our images quarterly and with all the various images and revisions to them our image numbers are now approaching 100 even though there are only 4-5 images on each server.
Thanks in advance,
John
