Indeed, I am both off the phone and gray/bald.

It seems somewhere around the time that my client applied this patch,
their ISP was also making changes to their backbone. (Figures?) So, at
the end of this all... it turned out to not even be an issue with the
licensing server. No neenering, Nick. ;-)

The problem turned out to be...

Eventlog was indicating that the Terminal Server could not issue a
client license, and the permanent licenses were in fact not being
issued.=20

Each time the Neoware was reset back to factory defaults, it took a
temporary license. This is natural. The first time you log in a
temporary license is taken, the second time a permanent license is
issued. The size of a permanent license is greater than a temporary
license (in bytes). One of the routers on our client's ISP's network had
a MTU of 1024 set, which was fragmenting data. Because of this, the TS
and the device were having trouble negotiating a permanent license,
because the data can not come over separated as it was and be considered
valid.

We were able to identify which router by pinging each host through the
traceroute with the -f -l 997 options. After we addressed this issue,
the problem was resolved and licenses were being issued as normal.

Fricking. A.

No, But licensing should NOT be an issue at this stage. We ran a
lsreport
and the licensing database is working as it should. If it does turn out
to
be licensing, I don't know what I'm going to do with Bill, but its gonna
be
bad!!!

I'm also curious if Ryan is off the phone already with MS and turned
gray/bald..?

TIA
