It's – to me – not a question wether something works correctly or
not. To me it looks like a difference in default-frame-alist and
initial-frame-alist. Check these!

Make also tests with command line options like -q and -Q to see
customised and "vanilla" behaviour.

There is no frame, window, or particle of GNU Emacs that can claim:
"Hey, *I* am the server!" (You can start it form ~/.emacs!) As long
as in the multi-tty GNU Emacs 23.0.60 one particle of that Emacs is
left (even when running in the background, but not when completely
suspended, i.e., C-z without fg in terminal) which started in any
particle the server, the server is on, running, and accessible from
emacsclient. *Each* particle is the server and every particle could
have been a client. It's as with hard-links. Why don't you try it?
You dont need to quit first Emacs, just stop its server (although not
really needed, but less complication on the command line) and launch
another instance of GNU Emacs! There aren't so many on this list that
did the same as you are trying to do. Therefore the lack of good
replies.

You won't learn much English when just testing (and not writing), but
doing (in)sane experiments will make you experienced and sure about
what you are doing. Or trying to ...
