OEM 2.1 cannot contact agent on a node

Hi - me again, still having lots of fun with Oracle Enterprise Manager 2.1!

Having got OMS working, I fired up the OEM 2.1 console, and gave it a list of nodes to discover. It found one of the 8.1.6 nodes (an NT box), and the 7.3.4 node (a Sun box), but failed on two others (an 8.1.6 Sun box and an 8.0.5 NT box) with the message:

"Discovery failed: VNI-4009: Cannot contact agent on the node."

Now, the 8.1.6 Sun box hadn't got its Intelligent Agent started, so that was soon rectified.

However, the 8.0.5 NT box DOES have a running Intelligent Agent (the Service name is Agent80), and on the server, the Agent80 service shows up when I do a "net start" command. The documentation suggested I check the server was using TCP/IP - which it is. I also came back to my workstation and tried pinging the server, and it pings successfully. But despite trying everything I can think of - even stopping and restarting the Agent80 service on the 8.0.5 box, I still can't get OEM 2.1 to discover the node successfully.

Any ideas, please?

Cheers,

Paul
