[SOLVED] Server Section Error

[RLSinOP]

New Zimbra user here. I installed today and most everything seems to be working well.

When on the admin console and I click on my server under the "Servers" section I get the following error in a "Zimbra Administration" popup:

Server error encountered Message: system failure: exception during auth {RemoteManager: mail.mydomain.com->zimbra@mail.mydomain.com:22} Error code: service.FAILURE Method: GetServerNIfsRequest Details:soap:Receiver

I've replace my actual domain name in the message above with mydomain.com

Any help appreciated.

Assuming you're using the standard ssh port:
1. Check /etc/sshd_config and be sure it's set to 22
2. stop/start/restart sshd

/etc/init.d/ssh restart

3. su - zimbra
4. Be sure zimbra's ssh port is set to 22

zmprov ms server.domain.com zimbraRemoteManagementPort 22

5. Generate new ssh keys

cd /opt/zimbra/bin/
./zmsshkeygen

6. Deploy the keys

./zmupdateauthkeys

To test this, you can run the following command:

ssh -vi .ssh/zimbra_identity -o strictHostKeyChecking=no zimbra@server.domain.com -p 22

-Shouldn't prompt you for a password at this point...then check the admin console mail queues area/servers/certificates.
If you continue to get that error please see this doc for some more ideas Mail Queue Monitoring - Zimbra :: Wiki

Thanks for the prompt and detailed response Mike. Upon inquiry to the sshd_config file, which I found wasn't there, I realized SSH wasn't installed. Amazing how well everything worked after that. Perhaps this should be something the installer checks for...

Nubes will be nubes, right?

Thanks again
