I am running a simple configuration with 1 Server (non-Windows server), One Windows 7 and one Windows XP clients and One Controller (Wink2K8 R2). The DC is W2k3. So the test is running in the Domain mode. I pass through all preparation commands successfully. Run Client fails with Controller time out with Error receiving 'ready' message.
This is Message on the Controller:

I did not prepare this Client to use the configuration file! I am not sure why It is looking for profile file.
I think the controller fail to communicate with the clients but I am not sure why!
Any Idea why?
Thanks,
