Hi again:

I tried with completely new installations (single mandos-server and
single-client), and yet I could not figure out exactly why mandos is
not working. Both debian squeeze boxes.

On mandos-monitor, I am getting:
"2012-12-03T21:33:27.142917: Checker for client debian64.domain.local
(command "f
ping -q -- debian64\.domain\.local") failed with exit code 2"

Any inputs will be appreciated!
