Have you used ethereal or some similar tool to check if the clients are
making the proper requests, and if the servers are responding?
It's been quite a while since I read the XDM RFC, so read the following
scenario with caution.
The client would send a broadcast packet on its subnet requesting a list of
servers. Then a server (presumably the least loaded one) would broadcast
reply with a list of servers. The other servers would know not to reply, as
they would have heard the broadcast. The client would then look through the
reply, maybe apply some filtering to the list of machines (local network
only?) and then display the list to the user.
