Assuming you have verified with the ps command that cf-serverd is indeed running, you will want to eliminated the possibility that something is blocking access to port 5308, perhaps a firewall ACL. Use telnet to run some tests. On the client, try to connect to port 5308 of the server. If it connects, you should see something like this: % telnet 10.1.1.199 5308 Trying 10.1.1.199... Connected to 10.1.1.199. Escape character is '^]'. Thise indicate that there is a process answering on the port on the server side. If it doesn't connect, you may see something like this: % telnet 10.1.1.199 5308 Trying 10.1.1.199... telnet: connect to address 10.1.1.199: Connection refused telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused Or, you may see just, % telnet 10.1.1.199 5308 Trying 10.1.1.199... It looks like you're running either CentOS6 or RHEL6. Check your firewall on the system, and I'd also look at selinux - if it's running in enforcing mode, /etc/selinix/config Hope this helps. _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
