I have OpenThinClient running on a Windows 2003 Standard Server. There are about 10 Thinclients running for months. One of them had hardware issues and now when I try to connect one to replace it no joy. The other 9 are happy campers.
The server only has one NIC There is no VPN involved There is no firewalling The terminal gets IP address from DHCP but appears to fail on TFTP file transfer. Here is some of the wrapper.log showing the attempted boot: INFO | jvm 1 | 2009/09/22 16:10:45 | 16:10:45,375 INFO [BindToAddressPXEService] Got PXE DISCOVER on cptssvr.CatalinaPointe.local/192.168.1.3:67 from /0.0.0.0:68 MAC=1/00:1b:b9:cb:d8:b1 ID=PXEClient:Arch:00000:UNDI:002001 INFO | jvm 1 | 2009/09/22 16:10:45 | 16:10:45,406 INFO [BindToAddressPXEService] Conversation started INFO | jvm 1 | 2009/09/22 16:10:45 | 16:10:45,422 INFO [BindToAddressPXEService] Got OFFER within Conversation[1/00:1b:b9:cb:d8:b1/-1161045839]: age=31, client=[Client name=SonoraTC-04, description=MA Terminal, ip=0.0.0.0, location=English applicationGroups={[ApplicationGroup name=Base, description=Desktop plus RDP Client] }, applications={}] INFO | jvm 1 | 2009/09/22 16:10:45 | 16:10:45,422 INFO [BindToAddressPXEService] Sending PXE proxy offer DHCP Discover: hwAddress=1/00:1b:b9:cb:d8:b1, tx=-1161045839, options=org.apache.directory.server.dhcp.options.optionsfi...@1dfa907 INFO | jvm 1 | 2009/09/22 16:10:45 | 23:10:44,531 INFO [syslog] syslog-ng[2327]: STATS: dropped 0 INFO | jvm 1 | 2009/09/22 16:10:47 | 16:10:47,375 INFO [BindToAddressPXEService] Got PXE REQUEST on cptssvr.CatalinaPointe.local/192.168.1.3:67 from /0.0.0.0:68 MAC=1/00:1b:b9:cb:d8:b1 ID=PXEClient:Arch:00000:UNDI:002001 INFO | jvm 1 | 2009/09/22 16:10:47 | 16:10:47,375 INFO [BindToAddressPXEService] Ignoring PXE REQUEST from 0.0.0.0 on cptssvr.CatalinaPointe.local/192.168.1.3:67 from /0.0.0.0:68 MAC=1/00:1b:b9:cb:d8:b1 ID=PXEClient:Arch:00000:UNDI:002001 INFO | jvm 1 | 2009/09/22 16:10:47 | 16:10:47,375 INFO [BindToAddressPXEService] Got PXE REQUEST on cptssvr.CatalinaPointe.local/192.168.1.3:4011 from /192.168.1.50:68 MAC=1/00:1b:b9:cb:d8:b1 ID=PXEClient:Arch:00000:UNDI:002001 INFO | jvm 1 | 2009/09/22 16:10:47 | 16:10:47,375 INFO [BindToAddressPXEService] Sending PXE proxy ACK rootPath=192.168.1.3:/openthinclient bootFileName=/pxelinux.0 nextServerAddress=192.168.1.3 reply=DHCP Acknowledge: hwAddress=1/00:1b:b9:cb:d8:b1, tx=-1161045839, options=org.apache.directory.server.dhcp.options.optionsfi...@b157af INFO | jvm 1 | 2009/09/22 16:10:47 | 16:10:47,406 INFO [TFTPServer] Starting TFTP send for /pxelinux.0 to /192.168.1.50:2070 INFO | jvm 1 | 2009/09/22 16:10:49 | 16:10:49,406 INFO [TFTPServer] Starting TFTP send for /pxelinux.0 to /192.168.1.50:2071 INFO | jvm 1 | 2009/09/22 16:10:53 | 16:10:53,422 INFO [TFTPServer] Starting TFTP send for /pxelinux.0 to /192.168.1.50:2072 INFO | jvm 1 | 2009/09/22 16:10:57 | 16:10:57,406 ERROR [TFTPServer] READ: error starting transfer for /192.168.1.50:2070: Failed to transfer file: retries exceeded.

I have tested the location and cabling good for gigabit. Failed on other switch ports. Notebook running XP Pro RDP has no problems at that location. Any suggestions appreciated.
