Windows agent not listening on 6556

Troubleshooting

CMK version: 2.1.0p17
OS version: server 2012/2022

Hi we recently started implementing corporate mandated GPOs. It works fine on 99% of the servers but on a few the checkmk stop listening.
I tried full clean reinstall and unless I remove the policy it just won’t listen (nothing on 6556 on netstat).

How can I approach this issue? I tried looking at the logs but honestly I don’t know what to look for.

If anyone can assist I will be greatful,

Ben

  1. I wrote windows in the title and OS 2012\2022…
  2. It’s not even a network issue, its local on the server. the agent listener is simply not running (server FW is off).

Thanks
