Hello,
Are you creating new client or trying to rename one, usually, you only 
supply client id during the later, are you re-using clientid ? 
Thanks

Re: Unable to add a new client






I'm using NMC, so all I get is a single pop-up box entitled Error:
'Invalid client ID', with an OK button...

I asked the system admin why it has 4 IP addresses, he said to
facilitate throughput, it's a large file server with about 3 Terabytes
of capacity.

How would I go about using the local host file to force it to use just
one IP address ?? Simply add it the local hosts file with a single IP
address ?

There is no firewall involved as far as I know of... 

I see nothing in the daemon.raw log file either...
