Headless dnclient daemon for managed nebula networks.
DNClient Server is the headless build of the Defined Networking client. It installs the dnclient.exe binary and registers it as an auto-start Windows service so the host joins your managed nebula network on boot. Pair with the enrollment code from the Defined admin panel to bring a server online.
