I will try that when I get a chance (off-hours).

Depending on the switch, it may be a "spanning-tree" or Cable Looping prevention scheme kicking in.
I ran into this on my lab bench since I was using a new, unconfigured switch.

I am thinking it might be a networking issue - I have just purchased a managed switch, so can anyone explain how to force 100Mb/Full duplex for a thinkNIC client - eepro100 I think?

I have a dozen ThinkNICs using LTSP4. They do not always want to boot up. They will all boot up, but sometimes I have to reboot them a dozen times before they do. A typical boot where they fail starts like a successful boot but the whole PXE/tftp process moves at a snail's pace.
During a successful boot the following lines would normally be too fast to read, but during a failed session they are printed to the screen at a rate of one line per 15 seconds or so, finally hanging when it gets to a matching entry for the file in the pxelinux.cfg directory:
