It is able to install and monitor fine on the Unix boxes when using the root account, however when we try to use the scom account, it keeps teliing us that "The agent responded to the request but the WSMan connection failed due to: Access is Denied." However using putty i am able to ssh to the UNIX box without issues.

Could you let us know what more should be done, I have also enabled logging on the account, and do see that there is a connection from the SCOM server to the UNIX server, however the access is not given as the creds are read as being invalid.

The following is the code from the sudoers file:

scomuxaa ALL=(root)      NOPASSWD: /bin/sh -c cp /tmp/scx-*/scx.pem /etc/opt/microsoft/scx/ssl/scx.pem; rm -rf /tmp/scx-*; /opt/microsoft/scx/bin/too

                                  #/bin/sh -c sh /tmp/scx-*/GetOSVersion.sh; EC=$?; rm -rf /tmp/scx-*; exit $EC, \
                                  #/bin/sh -c  cat /etc/opt/microsoft/scx/ssl/scx.pem, \

rm -rf /tmp/scx-scomuxaa; exit $EC
scomuxaa     ALL=(ALL)       NOPASSWD: ALL, !/usr/bin/su -

Could you please help.

Hello,

If you are able to ssh to the computer with your scom account, but get access denied errors with WSMan, it is possible that there is an issue with the PAM settings. Is the scom account a local user or Kerberos user? Can you check /etc/pam.conf for OMI settings, which would be indicated with this comment:

# The configuration of omi is generated by the omi installer

Hi,

Verify that the username and password for agent verification were input correctly and that the user is a valid user on the target host.
