The Waiting to Connect to Authentication Manager icon indicates that the Sun Ray Client has received its parameters from the DHCP server and it has connected to the Sun Ray server but has not yet completed it authentication. The icon is displayed for a few seconds as part of the normal startup process.
Problem: The icon displays for more than 10 seconds or the Sun Ray Client resets after the icon is displayed.
Verify that Sun Ray services, including the Authentication Manager, are running on the Sun Ray server.
In a LAN configuration or other routed environment:
Verify that the Sun Ray Client's IP address can reach the Authentication Manager.
Verify that the Sun Ray Client's routing information, received from the Sun Ray server, is correct.
Verify that the bootp
proxy agent is
configured correctly in the Sun Ray Client's subnet and that
it points to one of the Sun Ray servers in the failover group.
Run utquery for the Sun Ray Client's IP
address to see the parameters that the Sun Ray Client
received. If the parameters do not include an
AuthSrvr
parameter, the DHCP server might
not have sent the Sun Ray parameters or the parameters might
not be correct.
To confirm that the DHCP server can be reached, check the
value of the DHCPServer
parameter.
To confirm that the DHCP server sends the proper Sun
Ray-specific parameter values, check the value of the
INFORMServer
parameter.
If a value is incorrect, look at your
bootp
relay configurations and DHCP
server configurations for network and Sun Ray parameters.
For details of these parameters, see the
utquery
man page.
To restart DHCP on a Oracle Solaris server, type the following as superuser:
