[AG-TECH] Connecting machines for multibox node?

[Thomas D. Uram]

I'd recommend checking the VenueClient.log file for an indication
of the problem.  You will see plenty of information in the log file
that is not relevant to your problem, but you should also see
some entries related to your problem; you can try searching for
the error string you mentioned.  It's possible that the problem will
be clear (e.g., unresolvable host); if not, you can send the log
for me to look at.

We've been trying to give the user more meaningful error
messages to facilitate fixing problems like these.  I'd
be interested to know which version of the software you're using,
and the exact text of the error message.

I've got AG running on the audio linux box, and the XP box can see it, and can add it as a service manager to the node service, but can't add the actual audio ("failed to add service" or some such). Alternatively, running node management on the linux box, I can open the XP node, add the audio box as a service manager, and add audio service, but then cannot save the settings.
