Unable to connect Zabbix agent in active mode to Zabbix server

[marafado88]

Hello,

I am trying to add my first agent in a Zabbix server fresh install, by setup this fields on a Zabbix agent running in a Windows Server 2008,

Server=<zabbix server>
ServerActive=<zabbix server>
Hostname=<hostname of the target server>

and then, in Configurations>>Actions I have added an Auto registration action for the same hostname set in agent, and those 3 operations:

Add host
Add to host groups: Templates/Operating Systems
Set host inventory mode: Automatic

And there was no new entries in Inventory hosts.

In zabbix agent logs, I have this, and there is nothing mentioning active server there:

6252:20180321:093654.940 using configuration file: C:\Program Files\Zabbix Agent\conf\zabbix_agentd.win.conf
6252:20180321:093654.987 agent #0 started [main process]
16872:20180321:093654.987 agent #1 started [collector]
13436:20180321:093654.987 agent #2 started[listener #1]
18876:20180321:093654.987 agent #3 started[listener #2]
17072:20180321:093654.987 agent #4 started[listener #3]

And I have also used nc command doing:

zabbix@zabbix:~$ nc -z -v -w 5 10.0.0.2 10050
Warning: forward host lookup failed for gfe-server.x.local: Unknown host
zabbix@zabbix:~$ nc -z -v -w 5 gfe-server 10050
gfe-server: forward host lookup failed: Host name lookup failure : Resource temporarily unavailable

And received those warnings but I dont understand why because this server can communicate through IP and DNS to intranet and internet, DNS is solving all links.

Anyone?

I have done this process with active server active(did a copy paste of the conf file) on a Windows Server 2012 but I have added it manually in Zabbix server, and I was able to receive data from that host.

That port was being filtered in that server, thanks anyway.

Zabbix agent in active mode does not listen on agent port.

can you check is there any configurations in the " hosts " file ?
