Cannot get Active Checks working on windows

[outriding9800]

Ok I got passive checks to work just fine. But the box that i want to monitor is going to be offsite soon and I cannot punch any holes into the firewall so I have to use active checks.

I am running 1.1beta12

Here is the network setup currently..

agent (w2k) hostname: blah ipaddress: 21.21.21.10

|
|

Firewall trusted port ipaddress 21.21.21.1 untrusted port ipaddress 148.0.0.1

|
|

Zabbix server ip address 148.0.0.2

from the agent i can ping 148.0.0.2 telnet (port 10051) into the zabbix server, ssh into zabbix server, and bring up the zabbix frontend (web)

From the zabbix server I cannot ping the the agent.

After moving from passive checks to active checks and the new network I made the change to the zabbix_agentd.conf file then I restarted the service

DisableActive=0

Here is my entire zabbix_agent.conf file:

# This is config file for zabbix_agentd

If I run the zabbix agent in standalone mode I get this result:

*** Zabbix Win32 agent operational. Press ESC to terminate. ***

If I just unplug the zabbix server I get this error from the standalone box

[14-Jul-2006 07:53:20] Active checks [Cannot connect to [148.0.0.2:10051] [No error]]

I run a netstat -an i see
0.0.0.0:10051

When I run tcpview from the agent I do not see any connects to the server at all.

Sorry for the but i tried to be as detailed as possible.
