Greetings everyone! I am glad to become part of the community. My first challenge is the error message I've been getting when logging on to zenoss. Cannot communicate with server, my portlets are empy (dashboard). I get that error when I attempt to browse the device. After browsing the event log I see.

mysql error OperationalError: (1130, "Host '192.168.1.42' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server")

The likely cause of this error is that localhost is set to resolve to 192.168.1.42 in your /etc/hosts file. This is causing Zenoss to connect to the actual IP address of your server instead of 127.0.0.1. You can fix this by allowing the 192.168.1.42 address to access the MySQL database.

        mysql -u root
mysql> grant all privileges on events.* to zenoss@'192.168.1.42' identified by 'zenoss';
        mysql> flush privileges;

Then restart Zenoss. It should now be able to connect using the actual IP of your server.
