This is what I got

I’m getting “Unable to open file for reading”.

@george1421 I set it to no but still can’t login. How do I check Apache error log?

I’ve been pulling my hair trying to get LDAP plug in to work but unable to. I’ve followed suggestions from @iyoung post and this post. I’ve tried it on my test and production servers but got no luck. I re-installed LDAP as instructed here but it didn’t help. Attached is the screenshot of my LDAP settings. I’ve confirmed with our AD admin that these settings are correct.

Does DN has to be a full path?
Does Bind Password need to be ecrypted using FOGCrypt?
When I tried to login using AD account from fog website:
domainname\DomainuserID - No error. The login page just refreshes.
DomainUserID - I get a “invalid login” error.

What am I doing wrong? Does anyone have a thorough tutorial on how to get LDAP authentication to work?

Thank you very much in advanced and apologize for the duplicate post.

@jamesb Like Wayne Workman said, if you are using dnsmasq you need to recreate a link to your undionly.kkpxe files as undionly.0.

i think the easiest way is to change the IP in /opt/fog/.fogsettings and rerun your installation?

sorry for my 2nd and 3rd questions.
and option 66 is your FOG server IP?
Have you temporarily tried to disable firewall or iptables?

@ch3i Sorry I do not know what you mean. I’m a total n00b to FOG.

To boot your clients on PXE, you need :

• An IP >> it’s OK
• A DHCP option that specified the TFTP server (option 66) : the ip of the server >> NOK
• A DHCP option that specified the boot file (option 67) : pxelinux.0 >> NOK

I’m curious. Did you set option 67 to pxelinux.0 or undionly.kxpe?

Thanks Wayne. You nailed it.

It used to change to 9 by default if you don’t touch compression rate but on svn 3291 it says at 0 if you don’t change it. Should 0 be faster when uploading? maybe compress algorithm has been changed since svn 25xx. I get over 1GB on 1, 400MB on 9 and 700MB on 0 for uploading. Selecting 1 through 9, download speed is back to normal. I updated to svn 3330 which addressed this and some other issues. Thank you.

Hello Polii123,

Did you figure it out? I have the same problem. After upgraded from SVN 25xx to 3291, uploading/download speed become so slow. I used to get about 1GB upload and 1.4GB download but right now upload and download cap out at 700MB.

thanks

if you are looking for Advanced Boot Menu, it is located on iPXE Boot Menu in FOG Configuration page in your FOG website.

FOGMulticastManager does not start correct on server reboot (at least for me on svn 2756 or some previous svn numbers). I have to remember to stop/then start the service every time I restart my server. I’d love to to get a permanent solution for this.

[CODE]sudo service FOGMulticastManager stop
sudo service FOGMulticastManager start[/CODE]

(sudo service FOGMulticastManager restart will not do it).

Have you tried to change fog menu exiting style?

Go to Web GUI —> FOG Configuration ----> iPXE Boot Menu —> [FONT=Ubuntu][COLOR=#000000]Exit to Hard Drive Type[/COLOR][/FONT]

This works for me on svn 2765 as suggested by Tom but this is not permanent. Multicast always breaks when the server restarted and clients stuck at “Starting to restore image screen…” Does anyone know how to make it permanent? Thank you.

clean cache or use another browser.

Happened to me on all Samsung SSDs.
Try to format the drive first from a Windows box.

By the way, we added the FOG server IP to the core swith as an IP helper. Do we need to added it to the floor switch as well?

Thanks.

This was what i did.

go to /opt/fog and open .fogsettings. Change option routers ip to x.x.x.x and domain-name-servers x.x.x.x

then rerun the setup.

I believe you can also delete that file and return the setup.

According to the test fog server log, the clients did look for default.ipxe file on the same server as it did for undionly.kpxe but I don’t think it did the one that i’m setting up.
Is there a way we can force it to look for the same sever?
Thank you!

Hello Tom,

Thank you very much for the reply.

I do have /tftpbot/default.ipxe (generated when I installed FOG). The IP in default.ipxe is pointing to my FOG server. I’ve copy all files from /tftpboot to /var/lib/tftp and /var/lib/tftpboot but no go.
My /etc/default/tftpd-hpa is pointing to /tftpboot; same as in /etc/dnsmasq.d/ltsp.conf

Where else should I look for?

Thank you.
