Re-adding XP machine to Kace?
I have an old XP box that management wants added back into Kace K1000. The XP box is online, so I remotely logged into the system, and determined Kace AMP Agent was already installed. So thinking I could just launch the provisioning agent and re-connect it that way, I tried.
The agent failed with a variety of errors, usually a variation of "bad username and/or password" (nt status logon failure, or nt status bad network name) so clearly I'm doing something wrong, the question is...what?
I tried for a username/password combo of "Domain\Domain Admin name (and associated password)" and "local system name\local admin name (and associated password)" and no change.
Help please?

I have tried to uninstall and re-install. And it's 6.4.120756 for the server and the agent is 6.4.522

check to see if it meets requirements for 6.4
Windows XP SP3
Professional, Tablet PC Edition, Media Center
Edition
If it does go to the registry and delete the kace agent id keys MachineID & InstallID and then reboot. If you have multiple orgs you may want to go to system-orgs-devices and search for it there to see if it not being filtered properly to the correct org. Check the amp.conf file to make sure the host and other settings are correct
now that you have the newer client you can use amptools to help debug
amptools debug=true - use this option to enable logging to troubleshoot issues with the AMP Agent
amptools resetconf host=x.x.x.x - use this option to reconfigure the AMP Agent to default, with a new AMP Server IP Address setting - SMal.tmcc 8 years ago-
Thank you, I'll look into this. We have a unified Domain so that's one less issue. The 6.4.x is installed on our other XP boxes, so that shouldn't be an issue - Radium_Angel 8 years ago

another thought see if this machine has a firewall running on it - SMal.tmcc 8 years ago
