Hello!

I just updated my version of FOG from 1.5 to 1.5.6.
My previously working AD Join no longer works.

In an attempt to fix it, I went in and re-set my password in the Active Directory Defaults area. (My password has not changed recently, but I thought maybe something went wrong during the upgrade and it needed to be re-entered.)

Prior to this, any time I changed my password here, it would auto-encrypt the password I put in, so that if you clicked the view button, my password was not view-able but now, it just leaves my password as password.

I checked the log on the client machine and the hostname changer has “Unknown return code 1909” in it.

I then tried upgrading to 1.5.6.2, but that didn’t fix my issue.

I’ve also noticed that all of my images now belong to fogproject instead of fog on the server. Is this normal?

Anyone have any thoughts?

Alright, here is the latest:
It appears that the failures are somehow related to Image uploads to Fog. After 2 days without failure, I started an image upload, went to a meeting, and two hours later, when I got back, tftp was broken. The failure doesn’t seem to happen immediately, since I’ve seen clients continue to connect to Fog immediately after an image upload.

The info you requested is here:

Attached is the syslog from today

Good morning,
I haven’t forgotten about your reply. I was just waiting for tftp to fail so that the logs and responses I give you are actually useful. Its been two days, and I haven’t had to restart once.
The only thing I’ve done differently is not uploaded a new image. I have one that is almost ready for upload, so I’ll do that and see if I can get it to fail again. If that works, I should have the requested info soon.
Thanks again for your help.

Results of iptables -nL looked exactly like yours.
Running sestatus gives me "The program ‘sestatus’ is currently not installed’. I assume that this means SELinux is not installed also?
hosts.allow and hosts.deny both had only comments in them.

Thanks for your help. I appreciate the inclusion of the commands I need to find the info out. Saves me a lot of digging.:)

This is from first thing this morning.
tftp failed again last night, but, as usual, restarted without issue.
I’ll try checking on the memory consumption again later today, since it looks like it is fine right now.
FOG is currently running on what used to be a Windows server that was taken offline when we got new ones.

Hi All,
I am currently struggling with my FOG server.
Last week up updated from .32 to 1.1.2. I am running my FOG server on Ubuntu 11.10.
Prior to the upgrade FOG had been working flawlessly for almost 2 years.
Now I am having intermittent issues with TFTP. It goes like this:
Upload an image, deploy an image. All works as it should. Then, randomly, I start getting TFTP open timeout errors on clients that are trying to boot to the network.
I follow the instructions here [url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Tftp_timeout[/url]… to check tftp from both windows and the fog server. Pre-TFTP open timeout error, I get the responses, just like I should. Post I get no response from either.
I restart the tftp service, and everything starts working again.
It typically keeps working for the rest of the day, and then fails sometime after I leave for work.
I checked the system logs and I found what I suspect is the issue.
I see:

along with a bunch of
Jul 14 15:08:39 CLS-FOG in.tftpd[7749]: tftp: client does not accept options, but this, I gather, is normal.

I am not particularly familiar with ubuntu beyond the basic stuff, and am not sure where to look from here. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Lindsay
