Nice, as a Linux/Fog n00b I would love some step-by-step / specifics if you have the time. If not that’s okay too, I’m sure I’ll figure it out from the post above. Thanks again.

in win XP go to the firewall settings and click on the ICMP tab make sure “ALLOW INCOMING ECHO REQUEST” and “ALLOW OUTGOING DESTINATION UNREACHABLE” are checked. Then add UDP port 7 to the exceptions. This should allow you to resolve host names in the FOG webui

Okay, well I got around to trying a few more things. Still no luck. IPV6 is disabled on the adapter and still the same results occur. Anyone have this working with W7 and the firewall enabled? Thank you all.

I will try disabling IPv6, as for disabling the firewall this is not an option on production computers. I only disabled it for trouble shooting purposes. Thanks for all the input will try and report back my finding. Thanks again.

Make sure you have the password entered at the initial setup for the SQL database entered in /var/www/fog/commons/config.php

Hi, and thank you for the reply. I have this set in my resolv.conf. It works fine with XP machines (as long as port UDP 7 is open and ICMP is allowed). It’s only with W7 and the firewall turned on I get this issue. I can even enable the firewall to allow every port every program 100% access and it still does not work. There must be something W7 firewall blocks that I am missing.?.? Thank you.

Monday Blues BUMP still trying to figure out these two issues. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you!

This also happened to me. I just manually added the host through the WebUI with the computer name and mac. Fixed it for me. Hope it works for you.

Friday BUMP any one have any input?? Thank you all.

First thing I would check is the Network your behind. Do you have 10/100/1000 nics in all the machines (fog and client)? are you behind a router, hub or switch? Uploading I get about 3GiB/min and download is about 4.6 GiB/min
