Hi Eric,

cat /etc/hosts

127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain   local


# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
#::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

Please suggest further. My OCS Server is located remotely over the wan
interface.

Thanks

Kaushal
