SMC 2.0 port problem

Question

I've installed Solaris Management Console 2.0 on Solaris 8 x86, MU 5 (07/01).
Removed first all old SMC 1.02 packages (from Admin Pack), installed all SMC 2.0 packages (from Solaris 8 x86 10/01 CDs).
SMC doesn't start.
Did $ truss smc -> some strange messages like:
     (waitid (RALL,..WEXITED|WTRAPPED|WSTOPPED...(sleeping)
     exit1
The 2 smcboot processes (parent+child) are running, AdminServer runs also.
It seems to me it could be a communication problem, so did:
$ lsof -p PID (of both smcboot procs)
-> the parent pid listens on port 898 (as it should) AND on port 5987 which should be the port for the child proc! The child listens on port 33273 or 33323 or...
In SMC docu says that parent runs on port 898 and child on 5987.
What's going on here? Seems the application hasn't looked at the manual ;o).
If I choose "http://localhost:898/toolboxes/this_computer.tbx" in web browser,
it lasts a while and then I got the source text.
Has anyone the same experiences or a hint?

Dear Alls,
I have problem when installations SMC 4.0 at Sun Ultra Enterprise 3000,
step my Installations
1. Upgrade Java 1.2.x to 1.5.x
2. Uninstall SMC 3.6.1
3. Installations SMC 4.0
But, can't create SMC server, there just options "SMC Agent & SMC Console"
for SMC Server Disable Options. Bellow links screenshoot Installations SMC 4.0SunMC 4.0 will only allow a Server install on Solaris 10 update 3 or update 4. (look at /etc/release if you're not sure what version you have). What OS is on you E3000?
