Does Host registration support FreeBsd & What are steps to register a FreeBsd host in Foreman?

Development
1

**Problem: I’m not able register host for Freebsd family when I’m running curl command i.e., curl -sS --insecure 'https://foreman.example.com/register?.... ' | bash

**Expected outcome: Host should be registered to Foreman

**Foreman and Proxy versions: 3.3.0 & 3.3.0-rc3

I’m not sure it’s properly supported today, but if you don’t post anything about the output then it’s hard to say why it doesn’t work.

I’d also recommend upgrading your Foreman. Version 3.3.0 is not supported anymore and current versions (3.7 & 3.6) and contain many improvements to the registration workflow.

@ekohl I have attached the error which I’m getting while running curl register on Pfsense CLI. Please guide me how to proceed further. I’m following this link comments of Marek_Hulan

Run the curl command without pipe into bash, i.e. omit the | bash. This will output the script it want to run. Copy the full text and paste it into a preformatted text block in your response.

The registration script doesn’t really take freebsd userland into consideration. In this case, it is trying to execute hostname --fqdn, which the variant available on freebsd doesn’t have.

But yes, you should be able to either change the template in foreman or just download it and change it before you run it.

Looks like this line here should be hostname -f then:

A PR for that is very welcome.

I missed this while I was on vacation, but I already linked to it: in my previous post: https://github.com/theforeman/foreman/blob/develop/app/views/unattended/provisioning_templates/registration/global_registration.erb. If you submit a PR there then it’ll be fixed in future releases.
