Hmm, well, I just realized that when I ran stateless-clients to add a 
client, that somehhow, it doesn't get added:
"
[root at Server ~]# stateless-clients --configuration DemoSystem --add 
00:11:11:4A:8A:21
[root at Server ~]# stateless-clients -l
Clients:
[root at fsix-Server ~]#
"
could this be related?
