First problem - Windows reports status LISTENING not LISTEN - so it
won't match on exact match. I use %LISTEN (more correct would be
%^LISTEN) to cover all eventualities.

I have the following in my hobbit-clients.cfg

CLASS=win32
        LOAD 80 90 # Load threholds are in %
        PORT LOCAL=%(\*|::|0.0.0.0):135 STATE=%LISTEN "TEXT=epmap listener"
        PORT LOCAL=%(\*|::|0.0.0.0):3389 STATE=%LISTEN "TEXT=RDP listener"
        PORT LOCAL=%[.:]3389 STATE=%ESTABLISHED MIN=0 TRACK=RDP
"TEXT=RDP connection"

Sounds like the client report isn't making it to the correct client
entry, or maybe not getting delivered at all. Check that it is not
reporting using a different hostname. Use the Reports->Ghost Clients.
Client names are case sensitive, so if the case doesn't match it won't
report under that machine.
