Aha, that's wrong. There's no operating-system name included there, it 
should be right after the hostname. Like (on my Linux box "jorn.hswn.dk"):
    client jorn,hswn,dk.linux linux

This is usually picked up from the SERVEROSTYPE which gets defined by 
the "runclient.sh" script that starts the client. It uses this command:

SERVEROSTYPE="`uname -s | \
    tr '[ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ/]' '[abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz_]'`"

but you can override it with the "--os" option when starting the client.

Henrik
