Hello, 

Well in my Lab Case i have a different DHCP server (option 66 is set
there pointing to the sunray server) but i dont use the SunRay DHCP
server. I never have had issues with enabling/disabling the GUI in the
past though and i know for sure that the firmware upgrade reached the
sunray clients when i updated to 5.2.5 (distorted screen on clients on
firmware upgrade, first 1/3 of the screen gets a wierd look in the newer
firmwares when upgrading/loading). 

On another Site we have an SRS server (notebook) connected to Sunrays
(switch inbetween) were the SRS DHCP is used, yet the GUI does not get
enabled neither (all with LAN connections).

My Lab Sunray1 and my Sunray2FS both have the identical firmware (since
upgrade to 5.2.5).

After looking abit deeper, it seems that my SunRay has the pop-up gui
enabled no matter what (ignores utfwadm -Aa -N all -G off) and my
SunRay2FS has the pop-up gui disabled (cannot be enabled).

I honestly dont know what i am missing. I know the Option66 is set
correctly, i can see the SunRay communicating with the (right) Server
(stop+n), i see firmware upgrades if i order them, but i cant enable (or
disable) the GUI. I cannot use the SRS DHCP server but iirc that is not
a absolute requirement (as long as option66 is provided correctly). 

Either i have missed some obvious setting in the newer SRS versions or
something doesnt work as expected? 

Regards,
Philipp
