Hi All,

I’m using IBM Endpoint Manager 9.0, all my other server are reporting properly(ex. windows) but all my AIX server 5.3 and up are not reporting to the server after installation of client.

i get this error:

RegisterOnce: GetURL failed - General transport failure. - winsock error -6 -

-a have added the hostname to the hosts file

-i can ping/ telnet server.

Have anyone encountered the same problem? thanks.

Braian

The error you are getting is:

err_BAD_SERVERNAME -6

This means the client isn’t able to resolve the address. The setting for the server/relay may be an unqualified name or a fully qualified name but it is suggesting however it is set that the client is having problems.

Check in the /var/opt/BESClient/besclient.config file for the setting for __RelayServer1 and the exact text should be pingable.

For example if it was:
http://machinename:52311/bfmirror/downloads/

then machinename has to be pingable. Only mentioning it because you might only have machinename.fullyqualified.com in the hosts file or vice versa.
