[fog] HostNameChanger and Joining the Domain

[EvLPhenom]

Afternoon all,

 

I am currently about to have a break down and likely throw something as this is infuriating me.

 

We have just received some new laptops that need to be imaged and deployed into the school. No problem I think I will deploy an existing image to them and should be sorted in no time. FOG has been working fine as far as I know, worked in the summer when every computer was reimaged and it has been used to reimaged the odd machine here and there since then. Now come to today......image deployed to the first 10 machines fine....noticed that they didn't join the domain. Started testing what was happening...Can ping the FOG server by name and IP address, checked the config file which has FQDN, checked the username and password in FOG for domain authentication all fine. Machines had correct name just not joined to the domain.

 

Done some more digging and found that the account used to add machines to the domain has had the password reset, no problem I will just recompile the HostNameChange.dll, re-encrypt the password and change the file and settings on the server. Now the FOG server isn't changing the host name on the machines.

 

Is there anything that I have missed? Is there anything that I can use to check what's causing it from stopping it working? I am at a complete loss of what to do now other than to find a script to add the machines to the domain and bash that into my unattend.xml and reimage said machines.

 

Here is an extract from the fog.log - it tells me it can't connect but the machines will ping the server fine.
