Ubuntu 16.04?

@Arsenal101 Using -R with chown and chmod already applied those same settings to that folder. (it’s recursive)

I would check your storage node ftp credentials once more, since that seems to be the one tripping up here at a guess.

@Arrowhead-IT Editing the ntuser.dat is far more difficult than copying it over, though.

I’m not sure if it’s feasible to do so for this. For example, the taskbar icons are stored in a very unfamiliar format. (perhaps possible to query the data from the current user and plant that in ntuser.dat though). Other issues are Microsoft using version numbers for apps in their registry (who on earth thought that would be a good idea?).

Also, another oddity on Windows 10 is that directly editing the ntuser.dat seems to not actually apply the changes to new profiles! But copying over an existing ntuser.dat does! This is very different from Windows 7 and endlessly more frustrating. Not to mention it makes no sense.

I will report tomorrow on how things went with defprof (they seem to use a specific program they wrote for the Windows Store Apps, so I’m guessing that will be key) and see if that can help to figure out this mess.

@christianu Have you turned off the firewall?

@Raymond-Bell Ubuntu 16.04?

Please list your server OS.

As far as I know, it should resolve a double slash automatically to the proper address, so it shouldn’t cause issues.

Edit /tftpboot/default.ipxe (last line is the one to edit) if you want to experiment though.

@george1421 I don’t really see how that would cause his current issues though.

And I’m fairly certain UEFI pxe boot would give an error about snp.

I’m guessing it’s in UEFI with CSM enabled and the PXE is in legacy mode.

However, this still raises the question about what’s going on with his setup.

@maveriick This is a shot in the dark, but check your FOG server if there’s a DHCP server running.

The fact that two different computers try to contact two different IPs sounds like multiple DHCPs on your network.

Also, I don’t know if it’s necessary on Server 2012, but did you restart the DHCP server after applying the DHCP options?

@george1421 I think his complaint is that when you click on the Wake on LAN label it enables Debug task (which it probably shouldn’t?)

@bmaster001 This happens because clicking on the WOL label activates Debug task which causes the other options to disappear as Tom explained.

@Quazz Well that didn’t solve anything, so I’m going to try out a little program called Defprof which should supposedly be compatible with W10 and do everything I hope it does.

@Quazz Scratch that, it still seems to cause issues, but I’m looking into some ntuser.dat stuff to fix it.

@Wayne-Workman Due to the difficulty in removing this file under Windows (close to impossible), this should be deleted after the profile is copied to the NAS, so that when you deploy it it gets deployed without the incorrect metro registry settings.

@Msobelman You need to enter a DNS server (usually same as router) for DHCP to be able to start. Add it in /opt/fog/.fogsettings

HOWEVER, it seems your server has the IP which is most commonly assigned to routers. If your router has that IP already then you’re going to have a ton of issues to get this to work.

Apparentally, to prevent Windows search from breaking after copying the profile over, all you have to do is delete

AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\UsrClass.dat

Windows will create one on login.

@Arsenal101 They’re two separate commands.

Just a guess but try

sudo ufw disable

Do you have storage nodes set up at each location? If so, it is probably best to use the location plugin yes.

@Tom-Elliott He posted the part numbers earlier, they’re regular HDDs.

Have you tried using different ethernet cables?

I don’t know much about networking, but perhaps something’s going wrong with the autonegotation function?
