Version Control Agent Trust Relationship Problem

[A.M]

I've just reinstalled a fresh copy of HPSIM5.2 on a new Windows 2003 server. However the trust relationship between HPSIM and VC on managed servers is broken. I copied over 'server_cert.pem' from the old to the new HPSIM server but i must've missed something. Can anyone please help?

Did you try logging into the server SMH and reimporting the certificate that way?

I called HP about this very thing today and spent about two hours with them still without it working. SIM is Windows, Target is Linux. tool cert.pem file tried to insert into sim and it said it was wrong format. Also while trying to setup the trust relationship would not connect from SIM to Linux Target because we do not allow anyone to log in as root, You need to first logon and then acquire root. I think HP needs to do a better job documenting the product. I was told that trust means that when something is pushed from SIM to target that "This is trust" and nothing more.

Hi Rancher, i just did a flat file copy replacing the new cert

Try doing the import instead of the flat file copy. My cert is cert.perm. I have had some serviers in the past where it looked like the cert got corrupted. Once I removed the old one and reimported through the homepage, everything worked fine.

Are you able to detail the export/import procedure? I think i'm heading down the wrong path. I went to Options> Security> Certificates > Server Certificate. But when importing i get the following error - Error importing signed certificate: public key in reply doesn't match server's public key; ensure importing proper reply.
