Hi Lukasz,When I configured,  I had 1 server, 3 clients and this was set up 
before trunks were configured between the four switches. I bumped up the 
revision number on the server by adding and removing dummy vlans, and bumping 
down on the clients by changing to transparent mode and back to client. Nothing 
cured the issue except a reload. George.
