Symptom(s):
- ERROR: "Could not connect to remote machine. Connection refused. Error no. (10061)(WSAECONNREFUSED)"
- This is followed by another dialog box titled "Serious Error"
Cause: Forgot to start VTServer on the Linux side.
Solution: Start VTServer on the Linux* Side
Other possible causes include:
- TCP/IP is not running on the Linux server. Confirm that the Linux server is in multi-user mode, since TCP/IP processes don't run in single user mode (sometimes called maintenance mode).
# ps -ef | grep init
The standard output of the above command will show an init statement, followed by a bracketed number. If that number is a [1], that is, anything other than a [2] through a [5], you must bring the system into multi-user mode so that TCP/IP will be active.
- TCP/IP names for the two systems are not properly set up.Try pinging between the two computers, both ways. Ping each direction first by IP address, then again by hostname. There should be no lost data packets.
- TCP/IP is not properly configured on the Linux system. Confirm the TCP/IP configuration by using the following two commands:
# netstat -in
# ifconfig <network card>
Where <network card> is the non "lo" entry from the netstat command, for example:
# ifconfig eth0
Confirm IP address, netmask, and all relevant networking information. Make changes if needed, compared to the TCP/IP setup of the Windows* computer.
