Conclusion:
- It’s unclear why the malfunctioning PC had multiple network cards.
- Domain Join does not work in this version.
(Note: This applies only if the PCs are not present in the domain—that is, if they have been deleted or have never been joined to the domain. Another group of PCs, PC001CAD through PC006CAD, were known to the DC and have joined the domain.)
The experiments leading to this conclusion are as follows:
OK, PC017CAD has been deleted and recreated. I searched for any other “duplicate” PCs using the following SQL queries.
mysql -u root fog -e “SELECT hmHostID, h.hostName, hm.hmMAC FROM hosts h JOIN hostMAC hm ON hm.hmHostID = h.hostID ORDER BY h.hostName ASC;”
mysql -u root fog -e " SELECT hmMAC, COUNT() AS anzahl FROM hostMAC GROUP BY hmMAC HAVING COUNT() > 1; "
mysql -u root fog -e " SELECT h.hostID, h.hostName, hm.hmMAC FROM hosts h JOIN hostMAC hm ON hm.hmHostID = h.hostID WHERE h.hostID IN ( SELECT hmHostID FROM hostMAC GROUP BY hmHostID HAVING COUNT(*) > 1) ORDER BY h.hostName, hm.hmMAC; "
Trying again
Of course, I forgot to select “Reset Encryption Data” again!!! Couldn’t that be set automatically when cloning??? It’s annoying me a little. But it’s probably the same as with the single snap-in—there must be a reason behind it that I just don’t understand

Check in the database whether the username and, most importantly, the password were entered correctly
mysql -u root fog -e " SELECT DISTINCT HostUseAD, hostADDomain, hostADUser, hostADPass FROM hosts; "
Joining the domain in PowerShell as a local administrator works
$domain = "MM.HTLWIEN10.AT"
$username = "MM.HTLWIEN10.AT\adminfog"
$password = "xxxxx" | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force
$credential = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($username, $password)
Add-Computer -DomainName $domain -Credential $credential -Restart
Ghost Snapins are still there…
I’m going to delete them now
Created a PowerShell script for domain joining and released it as a snap-in.

Hooray—the PCs are back online!
Hooray—all 6 PCs are now set up in Veyon—so they’ve all successfully joined the domain, and the “Student” snap-in for the Veyon client was also successful…
The Fog Logs are quite different, after all
thanks
