After the upgrade from 8.0 to 8.2, I am getting an issue with Windows machines 
(more than the usual Windows problems :)) It is a completely inline system.

I am getting the:
An Error occurred
Your computer was not found in the PacketFence database. Please reboot to solve 
this issue.

IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (This is a valid IP address for the network)

MAC 0
When I got the error, it did not matter how many times I rebooted, the same 
error occurred. The only way for me to clear it was to do an IP release and the 
IP renew. After this, it works as expected.

For now, I send them instructions on how to release and renew their IP address 
and within a minute, they are up and running. My concern is two fold:

1.       Why, and why only Windows machines.

2.       Will I have this problem next semester when they have all been gone 
for a month and their registrations renew and I will need to send out 100's of 
instructions.

Any thoughts? I am starting finals week, so I am expecting to be busy the first 
couple of days this week, but could force a reboot or two later in the week to 
resolve this problem.

Thanks!
