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

In your original post you said “Once changing my tftp_ftp_password in webui to my fog password I get “unable to connect to host”.”

I am trying everything I can think of but this error does not come from chaging that password. To double check I logged into my fog server changed that password rebooted and logged in again with no issues. Im sure i will not be able to boot a client up to the fog server but the WEBUI should NOT be affected in anyway by this change.

The ONLY way I have replicated this error is by typing the WRONG password (the one I DID NOT use at the SQL setup portion of the fog server) into:

“MYSQL_PASSWORD” “xxxxxxxxxxxx”

does your portion of the config.php look like mine?

Im sorry I couldnt be of more assistance.

Oh sorry read your post again your login needs to be set to “fog” as the username NOT USER.

Did you use the password “fog” for your MYSQL database when setting it up? or did you leave it blank? (most guides i have read say just leave it blank so if you followed a guide perhaps you also left it blank and thats what it should be). It really sounds like you have the incorrect password set to login to the SQL database “fog”.

Make sure you have the password entered at the initial setup for the SQL database entered in /var/www/fog/commons/config.php and also check /opt/fog/service/etc/config.php

Ok looks like its not able to connect to the MYSQL database. Scroll down farther in your config.php file (the 3rd red box in my picture above) and make sure you have the correct password in there (the the one you entered while setting up fog initially) (the database should be fog the user should be root), also is your username and password to logon to your ubuntu pc fog/fog?

your images are not showing up. Set them up as an attachment.

Ok, sorry I maybe confused here. Can you take a screen shot of the error and a screen shot of your config.php?

You have the correct password in where I marked mine out in red?

Also if you type in your ip address or host name into your browser do you get the IT WORKS! message?

/var/www/fog/commons/config.php

4th line down :
define( “TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD”, “xxxxxxxxx” )

place the password you need where the xxxxx are.

I used the same passwords for everything (MYSQL, Ubuntu User {fog}, & TFTP) it helps keep everything clean.

Sorry for the double post I’m not sure what happened.

Hi, i am new to the FOG community and new to the FOG project. I currently moved my image management from Ghost to FOG. I have a storage node and server set up both with 3 TB HDD. Everything is working smooth across the network, however I am stuck on two issues and I hope that this community can help me solve them. I am using Ubuntu 11.10 64bit server edition.
The first issue is that under the host management tab all users with windows 7 and the firewall turned on i have a red dot with host down. I can ping the machines (by name and IP) from the fog server. Users with Windows XP and firewall work fine (UDP port 7 allowed and ICMP allowed). Users with W7 and firewall off show up as green. I am completely stumped. Even if i create a new rule (inbound and outbound) to allow everything still host down with a red dot appears.
The second issue is that i can not get clamav to scan. My FOG server is connected to the internet and I can get all updates with freshclam (says i have the newest version installed). But when i select virus scan from the fog menu i get the same error as another user was on here. [IMG]http://fogproject.org/forum/attachments/img_20120212_132453-jpg.41/[/IMG]

After this is goes to Can’t query current.cvd.clamav.net Invalid DNS reply. Falling back to HTTP mode. Can’t get information about database.clamav.net. Can’t download main…cvd from database.clamav.net. Trying again in 5 secs…

I am able to ping all the servers and I get a readout when I do host -t txt current.cvd.clamav.net

"current.cvd.clamav.net descriptive text “0.97.3:54:14555:1330532941:1:63:36511:167”

Thank you all in advanced for your help.
