problem with "Manageability Terminal Tool.exe"

[sainan]

Hello:

Whenever I run "Manageability Terminal Tool.exe"(I'm using the latest version "Manageability_Developer_Tool_Kit_0_6_08288_2.msi")from the command line with necessary parameters, it opens the terminal and after sometime itconnects to the amt machine,but showing the power state as unknown. Then ifI try to use any command from the terminal, ithangs/fails and gives the following exception:

********** 10/22/2008 2:25:19 AM

But if I use it inside from the commandertool (from "Take Control") it works pretty fine.However, I need to use this terminal directly frommy application, so need to call the exe file with parameters.I would appreciate any help from you.

Hi:

I have solved it myself. My amt machine is using TLS. So you have to use "-tls" in the command line (I did not find this anywhere) with the other required parameters mentioned in the usage of the "Manageability Terminal Tool.exe". Or, you can change it from the source code. Both way works for me.

Thanks,

Safwan
