Error writing the handshake string to the newly established connection. (02

Question

Hi
I am having problems connecting from my Master to the Local Distributor server both on Solaris 10
I am using ssh with ssl and select encryption, no authentication on the Master
I was able to ssh from master to LD with prompt
I check the path it was correct
When I installed the LD I specified ssh
I turn on the Debug and got the following results
Debug from SPS Viewing Host Information
Trace route to 10.233.12.38:70001 failed. (022167)
Error writing the handshake string to the newly established connection. (022181)
Connection handshake failed, invalid handshake string. Ensure that the path to the N1 Service Provisioning System application is correct, the application is configured to accept ssh connections and that you can ssh to the machine without any prompts.

Ok what am I mssing

Answer 1

Hi,
I am not quite sure where exactly you get an error. Are you trying to prepare an agent that connects to your newly installed LD?
You did mention the following:
I was able to ssh from master to LD with promptDo you mean you could login from the MS to the LD without password and got the OS prompt? What you have to make sure is that your ssh authentication works for the n1sps user (or whatever you have chosen during installation) from MS to LD and from LD to RA. That involves copying the public key from the MS n1sps user to the .ssh/authorized_keys files on the LD and RA. And after that, you should check the connections manually:
1. From the MS: ssh <LD> ls -al
2. From the MS: ssh <LD> ssh <RA> ls -al
These both commands should work without any prompts and after that, you shouldn't get any error messages in SPS anymore.
HTH,
Michael
