Hi,

Thanks for all the help. Following steps resolved the issue.

0. removing the client.keys file, and the files in queue/rids,
queue/agent-info queue/syscheck and queue/rootcheck
1. stopped ossec services on agent
2. purged ossec
3. removed all ossec references, directories.
4. reinstalled ossec agent
