  2. Click link for Fog Client/FOG Prep. This still leads to a section for downloading the FogCrypt service
  3. Download FogCrypt

  3. cd FOGCrypt

  5. Open the file you created encrypted-password.txt with any text editor like notepad and the encrypted password can be copied into FOG via the FOG web interface.

Linux

Although FOGCrypt is a .NET application, and can be run on Linux, the encrypted value may not correspond to the value obtained from a Windows machine. So do not use this method unless you have verified the encryption against a copy running on the actual target computer.

  • If mono is installed on your linux box (not default of FOG install)
  1. Open terminal
  2. mono ./FOGCrypt.exe
    • If it complains about mscorlib.dll, run it as:
    •  MONO_PATH=/usr/lib/mono/4.5 mono ./FOGCrypt.exe 

Method 2:

  • Older versions of Fog
  1. Using winscp or some other sftp tool copy the fogcrypt folder from your fog server (/opt/fog-setup/fog_0.32/) to a windows pc
  2. Move it to c:
  3. Goto to Start, Run and type cmd and hit the Enter key.
  4. To get to the c: type cd c:\
  5. cd fog_0.32 (replace with name of the version you are using)
  6. cd FOGCrypt
  7. FOGCrypt.exe your password >encrypted-password.txt
  8. Open the file you created encrypted-password.txt with any text editor like notepad and the encrypted password can be copied into FOG via the FOG web interface.
