Trying to setup and automated install server.

My client , an Virtual box machine HOST network enable, is able to dhcp and get 
the boot image.

The problems come when starting the auto-installer SMF which fails with "No 
valid AI service found."

So far my search has found talk of this error when the boot server and client 
are on different subnets. This is not the case with my setup.

>From what I can see dns-sd -L x86_install_service _OSInstall._tcp local does 
>not return a response on my client machine. 

installadm list on the server shows the service is avaialble and the  dns-sh 
also responds successfully

dns-sd -L x86_install_service _OSInstall._tcp local
Lookup x86_install_service._OSInstall._tcp.local
18:02:22.900  x86_install_service._OSInstall._tcp.local. can be reached at 
agentsmith.local.:46502

snoop the network traffic I can see the following traffic
dhcp05.matrix.lan -> 224.0.0.251  MDNS C 
x86_install_service._OSInstall._tcp.local. Internet Unknown (33) ?

I'm a little unsure if this traffic good or not so good.

I'd appreciate any suggestion anyone can offer up.

Thanks
