Check if the server is listed in the "Ghost clients" report. 99% of the
time I see this problem, it is because the hostnames don't match between
what is in the bb-hosts file, and what the client reports. Most of the
time it is a mismatch between a plain hostname and a fully-qualified
domain name (Windows boxes tend to use the simple hostname).
