It's because your pointing your agent to local which will not resove. If you
use localhost or 127.0.0.1 it will work just fine if that's were your OCS
server is located.

Another solution if your hell bent on using local as the hostname, is to
edit your /etc/hosts file and add local to point to 127.0.0.1

Cheers,
Eric
