    • RE: Passwords, I broke 'em...

      Thanks @Tom-Elliott , @Wayne-Workman !

      I’ll keep the re-run in mind in case of future issues.

      This begs the question though… Why can I change the ‘fog’ user’s password through the web interface if this just breaks it…
      If I understand correctly, there is no way of just using the web interface to change the fog user’s password. I will always afterwards have to either:

      1. re-run the install script
        or
      2. become much wiser than I am and do some linux-config-dark-magic-stuffto make it work.

      right?

      @sebastian-roth Thanks for your help! that solved it:

      in www-error.log I have and endless list of these errors:

      [28-Jan-2021 11:23:41 UTC] PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Exception: Error multiple hosts returned for list of mac addresses in /var/www/html/fog/lib/fog/hostmanager.class.php:209

      looking at the date in c:\fog.log (or access_log on the server)

      http://172.16.1.2/fog/management/index.php?sub=requestClientInfo&mac=00:FF:3E:84:3E:C1|40:A8:F0:61:47:B3&newService&json
      

      We see two macs being posted. One this the mac of acual NIC in the machine, the other is for a VPN client.
      The MAC for the VPN client is identical on all machines, and, by mistake, that mac got linked to a host in FOG. I removed the incorrect MAC from the host config and things started working again!

      thanks again!

    • fog client no longer rebooting system to deploy, where to start?

      So,
      I have about 30 PC’s linked to my fog server, all windows 10. I have the fog client installed (v.0.11.16).

      Up to a a while ago, I could create a deploy task and the client would automatically reboot to receive the new image. Imaging still works fine, but the client needs to be manually rebooted.

      Somehow, the fogclient does not seem to receive or execute the reboot command.

      Where do I start with debugging this?

    • RE: taging an installion / using a snap in / where to start?

      Hi George!

      Thank you for your quick repsonse. I get what you are saying. I agree that I would prefere not to mess with the windows registry externally if there is another way to do things.
      We don’t sysprep the systems, seems less hassle in our situation. But, the bread crumbs you mention can be picked up by any system I suppose, not just OOBE, but a snapin script for example…

      But, which bread crumbs are your refering to? and how would you go about leaving that trail?

    • taging an installion / using a snap in / where to start?

      Hi,

      I’m looking for a way to keep track of which image or version I have installed on my clients.

      I’m thinking about using a snapin to write a registry key that holds this info. But, I’m open to other suggestions.

      If I use the snap in, is there a way I can pass the name of the image that was just deployed as an argument to the snap in?

      Ok, panic is over, things are working again…

      Now for the million dollar question…

      What if, some one, insane as this might sound, would think 'Hmmmmm I don’t like it if my password is… “password” ', what if this foolish person was bent on changing it… how would he go about that?

      Is there a step by step guide?

      :)

      Thanks!

      Hi Tom!

      another week, another question you help me with 😉

      /opt/fog/.fogsettings contains some form of encoded password at the moment.

      should I replace it with “password” plain text to reset?

      and… how do you make pards of your code red in your posts?
