Excuse what is possibly a newb question, but I'm trying to setup an ossec server with a couple of agents. The server is running on Fedora 9 x64 and as far as I can tell, it's working fine. However, I have installed 2 agents, 1 on windows 2008 R2 and another on Fedora 9. Neither of them can communicate with the server. Well, I'm sure the windows agent isn't. Not sure about the fedora 9 agent, how can I tell?

The authentication key matches the key given on the server:

Available agents:
   ID: 001, Name: wombat.xxx.local, IP: 10.21.4.112
   ID: 002, Name: skywarp.xxx.local, IP: 10.21.4.114

The IP addresses are correct and the agents have the right IP address and auth key for the Fedora 9 server. No firewall is configured on the server.

On the windows agent, I see this over and over:

2010/12/02 19:32:45 ossec-agent(4101): WARN: Waiting for server reply (not started). Tried: 'ackbar/10.21.4.24'. 2010/12/02 19:32:45 ossec-agent: INFO: Trying next server ip in the line: '10.21.4.24'. 2010/12/02 19:32:46 ossec-agent: INFO: Closing connection to server (10.21.4.24:1514). 2010/12/02 19:32:46 ossec-agent: INFO: Trying to connect to server (10.21.4.24:1514).

The fedora 9 agent logs:

Thanks for any help,
