Aclient connects, but doesn't show in the DS Console

I've run into an interesting situation.

DS 6.8 SP2. Aclient is version 6.8.282, I believe.

I have deleted a client computer in the Console and was trying to PXE boot and reimage this particular computer.
The PXE boot did fine until it was trying to connect via the AClient to the server. It would connect and then state, "Connection Closed. Session Terminated.". Then the machine would reboot.

I can take that same machine and boot it up to the old O/S and see the AClient was connecting to the server just fine, but still no mention of its existence on the Console.

I troubleshooted this by making sure it wasn't in the rejected computers list. Also, I uninstalled the Aclient from the computer and repushed it from the server just to see if it would then show up. No Dice.

Do I have a database issue here where I might need a SQL admin to scope it out or is there a way to correct it?

Thanks for any insight you may have.
