Hi J,

please write to the mailing list so that others can help, too, and
maybe find solutions to their own problems faster. Thank you! :-)

Running the management application on the server really should not
be necessary. You are the first one to notice such problems.

Which operating systems, their versions and locales did you use in
your setup?

Are those virtual machines or physical hardware? We have experienced
some stange effects with virtual networks that were not bridged to a
physical network.

If it doesn't appear in that list, even after you have right clicked on
the PXEClients list head node in the tree view and chose to refresh,
that might be an indication that there is a problem with either the
DHCP-Proxy itself or that it does not see the DHCP conversation between
Client and the DHCP server on the net.

Indications that there is a problem with the DHCP-Proxy can be found
on the OTC console or in the log file you can find in the installed
file <OTC-basedir>\server\default\data\nfs\root\var\log\server.log

To check whether it should see the conversation, you could run
wireshark on the server interface and use "port 67 or 68" as
filter to isolate the DHCP requests.

I recently updated the documentation for that in the wiki on
openthinclient.org. I hope it will explain the boot procedure
to you. Please visit www.openthinclient.org, and navigate to:
  documentation  ->  Admin's Guide  ->  ThinClient OS  ->  Boot
  procedure demystified
