[meva]

I have configure zabbix agent on client system,

cat /etc/zabbix/zabbix-agentd.conf
Server=192.168.6.163
ServerPort=10051
Hostname=client
ListenPort=10050
StartAgents=5
DisableActive=0
DebugLevel=3
Timeout=3

After configuration of client it is giving me below error into server log log
5809:20100603:191125.451 Sending list of active checks to [192.168.6.177] failed: host [client] not found

Please help me what is wrong with configuration.

cat /etc/zabbix/zabbix-agentd.conf
Hostname=client

Check the zabbix server web interface for the right name. In your hosts list, get the hostname for the machine or rename the "192.168.6.163" machine to "client".

Should work this way.

Er, you mean "rename the 192.168.6.177 machine to client", don't you?

Still same error
on Server
Sending list of active checks to [192.168.6.177] failed: host [client] not found

192.168.6.177 -- Client System
Hostname is same in web interface and client zabbix_agentd.conf.

[MrKen]

On the zabbix gui, configuration of hosts page, the first column says 'Name'.
In 'Name' you have "client", without quotes, correct?

The 7th column is IP. Here you have 192.168.6.177 in bold, right?

Is there anything in the zabbix_agentd.log on 192.168.6.177?

[meva]

yes I have same in name field client nothing else
and in 7th field IP is 192.168.6.177
same error

[MrKen]

I don't believe that the error in the client log (192.168.6.177) is the same as the error in the server log.

Do this:
1. In zabbix gui, disable that host.
2. On client 192.168.6.177, restart the zabbix_agentd
3. On client 192.168.6.177, check the zabbix_agentd log. What does it say?
4. In zabbix gui, re-enable the host.
5. On zabbix server, check zabbix_server.log. What does it say?
6. On client 192.168.6.177, check the zabbix_agentd.log again. What does it say?

If still not good, then you need to try to telnet from the zabbix server to the client, and vice versa.
