It probably changed because I rewrote the code that keeps track of the agentized servers. The old code used a server's method so any change to your server configuration and a server could be de-agentized. It's something that people have been complaining about for years. In the new code, the agent uses a unique name derived from the method. The result is that you can make configuration changes without effecting the agent. The downside is that the backwards-compatibility portion of the code isn't as reliable as I had thought. You should be able to fix your problem by manually adding the server to the agent. Doing so will update agent/lib/servers to use the new server names. Kevin
