I've been experimenting a bit. I unplugged the ethernet cable for a minute, the client disappeared from the epoptes UI, re-plugged, and it re-appeared and was able to be managed by epoptes again. That was amazing! I repeated but for 30 minutes unplugged and as expected, it didn't re-connect. I tested both with a user logged in and also without user logged in, same results. This is a great feature.

Today there was an issue and I thought at first that it was a similar issue but, unless I did something different, it seemed to resolve itself. It appears that the user with this problem had a corrupted home folder. Here's a piece of the epoptes log file that includes this event (Including here in case there might be a connection). The client with the problem was 192.168.67.55. I ended rm -r the users home folder and the user had no problems after that. Anyway, I'll keep looking for a similar event and update this report then.

Thanks,
David
