For example i get :

[CODE]#!ok=TECH2-05 #AD=1 #ADDom=STJ #ADOU= #ADUser=STJ\Administrateur #ADPass=**********************************[/CODE]

For another one :

[CODE]#!ok=CDIP2 #AD=1 #ADDom=STJ #ADOU= #ADUser=STJ\Administrateur #ADPass=***************************[/CODE]

It seems weird… fog.log didn’t prompt anything wrong, no join domain error codes. We’ll crawl into that today.

Thanks for your answer!

[U]Specs : [/U]

Server : FOG 1.1.1 on Debian 7.5.0 - HP Proliant ML150 Gigabit card
Clients : Lenovo E72 3493-KAG - Windows 7 - Single Partition Resizable
Single user called “User” with password

[U]The story : [/U]

We’ve been replicating computers in a room, set the “Join AD after task completion” and after the task completion guess what ? Hostname successfuly changed but no AD auto join …

We’ve been looking around, crawling logs and Database and we found that imported computers from a CSV or by directly writing them into FOG SQL database won’t join Active Directory after Task Completion.

We had to manually remove them from PXE boot menu and re-add them with “Full Host Registration”, then they will boot up and join AD correctly.

How can we skip that buggy thing ? Is there a SQL parameter to define ? Something special to do ???

Cheers !

We are now used to it but the IP configuration for DHCP is somehow not that perfect.

Static IP is OK
No custom netmask settings (we are using /21 netmask for example)
No DHCP range definition

When you’ll have time, that would be great

K3nnyfr

Did you registered the Hosts or did you import them with CSV/SQL injection ?

I don’t know if I explained well, it’s a GLPI Plugin, not a FOG Plugin in fact

It connects to FOG MySQL Database but work on the basis of GLPI !

Edit : screenshots for example

Green (collapsed by default) what’s already in GLPI and FOG
Orange : Warning on computers with name/mac different between GLPI/FOG
Red : Missing computers in FOG, you can add them from here.

Hi everyone,

We’ve been developing with my trainee a plugin for GLPI.
If you don’t know GLPI yet, [SIZE=3][FONT=sans-serif][COLOR=#252525]it’s a free[/COLOR][/FONT][FONT=sans-serif][COLOR=#252525] asset and IT management software package, it also offers functionalities like servicedesk ITIL or license tracking and software auditing. [/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE]

Very popular here in France.

We are using it in my school to inventory our computers, and as we’ve already inventory everything and reinstall FOG from scratch, we’ve need a plugin to export computers from GLPI to FOG.

It does not simply overwrite everything,
[LIST]
[]The plugin look after the computers you already registered with FOG and try to find matches with GLPI.
[]If name and MAC address matches, it will prompt you that the computer is already in GLPI and FOG
[*]If name OR MAC address matches, it will prompt you that it maybe an issue, different name but same MAC address/same name different MAC address
[/LIST]
You can find our code here : [url]https://github.com/k3nnyfr/fogtransfert[/url]

Tested and running on FOG 1.1.1 and GLPI 0.83 and over.

I’ll try to make screenshots tomorrow. We are looking forward to implement language support, better integration with GLPI native functions and better security.

Feel free to ask about the plugin here, I watch the thread!

Cheers

Alexandre

Hi

We’ve made a GLPI->FOG plugin : [url]https://github.com/k3nnyfr/fogtransfert[/url]
If you are looking for the same thing the other way, you can hack my code and do your own

cheers

I made a video tutorial for USB Boot Drive creation and BIOS Update then PXE Boot with FOG 1.1.1

[media=youtube]NcKNp6gEH1o[/media]

Enjoy the show !

K3nnyfr

I’m so stupid.

I FORGOT TO RE-ADD THE DEFAULT.IPXE FILE SO IT CANNOT BOOT !!!

It’s now loading properly =D

To conclude :

FOG Fresh install of 1.1.1
Use the latest trunk files that Tom gave/ Use my command script to retrieve them in /tftpboot
chown them with the right user:group (fog:root)
recreate the Default.ipxe file
Flash your BIOS with latest update so it can properly boot up iPxe (for Lenovo 3493-KAG : [url]http://support.lenovo.com/en_GB/downloads/default.page?selector=expand[/url])
File to use for Realtek 8111 network card is undionly.kpxe provided by Tom

Thanks Tom, Junkhacker, andjjru and tamatech for your support !!!

Update:

We’ve updated the BIOS for our problematic device (Lenovo Thincenter E72 3493-KAG) and now the PXE boot goes a little further

With :
[LIST]
[]ipxe.kpxe : it goes further, gets a Configuring line, display a timeout i got on camera then loads windows
[]undionly.kpxe : it goes further, gets a Configuring line but then quickly the screen goes black and it load Windows
[]undionly.kkpxe : same
[]undionly.kpxe.INTEL : same
[*]undionly.pxe : bootloop
[/LIST]

Your wget command didn’t work for me, I did

[CODE]wget -i listdownload.txt[/CODE]

with that list

I’m trying with symbolic links now.

Edit : got that screen with undionly.kpxe and undionly.kkpxe

This is what we did (with my trainees)
[LIST]
[]service tftp-hpa stop && service isc-dhcp-server stop
[]mv tftpboot tftpboot.bak
[]mkdir tftpboot
[]wget all the files in that fresh folder
[*]edit /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
[/LIST]
In that file we replaced succesively the filename property with the different .kpxe/.kkpxe file in tftpboot folder.
Then start up tftp-hpa and isc-dhcpd and boot up our problematic device.
Am I doin it right ? Are we totally wrong doing it ?
Should we procede otherwise ?

Cheers and thanks for your support !

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 30835, member: 7271”]Can you try one of the more recent kpxe/kkpxe files:
[url]https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/tftp/[/url][/quote]

Hi there, I’ve replaced all the exisiting files with those on the SVN, we tried them one by one.

Sometimes the screen is cleaned and a “iPxe Initializing devices…” appears, sometimes the same screen as before.

Nothing better or worst.

Hi Tom, i’ll try it tomorrow morning (it’s 20h07, CEST here), i leaved work for now.

I will download all the files you provided and replace the existant and tell you if it works.

Just saw that on gPXE wiki :

[*][SIZE=3]Buy another NIC. Really. I tried two and both did never work reliably (link problems – either no link detected or DHCP answers missed – could be a firmware issue, but how do I fix the firmware when I need to boot with that NIC??).[/SIZE]

[/QUOTE]

Made me laugh =P

K3nnyfr

I tried your files, nothing better.

FOG still works fine with other computers. I have that issue with that model only =/

If anyone has the magic pack of *.kpxe files it would be great to deliver !

[quote=“tamatech, post: 30829, member: 24111”]Have you explored all of these - including the .INTEL one?

[url]http://sourceforge.net/p/freeghost/code/1769/tree//trunk/packages/tftp/[/url][/quote]

nope, i’ll try them right now

K3nnyfr

[quote=“andjjru, post: 30830, member: 575”]Did you try undionly.kkpxe as I recommended earlier in the thread?[/quote]

yup

K3nnyfr

[quote=“tamatech, post: 30826, member: 24111”]I know the dev team has made leaps and bounds in this area since I originally started the topic. Have you tried the ipxe.kpxe file I uploaded to this thread?[/quote]

Yes same status with your ipxe.kpxe file…

K3nnyfr

Same “iPXE initializing devices…_”

K3nnyfr

Stuck in that case with Lenovo Edge72 SFF computers, Realtek 8111\8168 GBie Network Cards.
[LIST]
[]Debian 7.5
[]FOG 1.1.1
[]RSTP on switchs
[]Tried the Pause/Return trick
[*]Did try several undionly.kpxe files
[/LIST]
Any hints ? I tried google it several times without success.
Cheers!
