Problem with Direct Admin Multiserver

[anton1982]

I have problems with DA multiserver. I try to explain a bit more here.

I've got 2 VPS servers and would like to use them as multiserver (nameservers). I have done this before but now I'm running into problems.
When I try to test the multi-server connection from A to B I get "Unauthorized. Check your username and password."
When I try to test from A to B I get Unable to connect to xx.xx.xx.xx: Operation now in progress Unable to open a socket

Wat is also strange is that I (of course) can connect to SSH on both servers but I cannot SSH between the servers.

SSH from VPS A to VPS B gives: Permission denied, please try again.
SSH from VPS B to VPS A gives : ssh: connect to host xx.xx.xx.xx port 22: No route to host

Strange right?

I am thinking that it might be a problem that both VPS'es are on the gateway IP. So for example (not real IP addresses):
VPS A: 23.43.165.16
VPS B: 23.43.165.241
Both use gateway IP: 23.43.165.16

I hope you guys can help me!

Hello,

Make sure that iptables do not block your servers` IPs. It most likely that one IP is blocked on another VPS. If the IPs aren't blocked then try to disable firewall temporary and check connection once more again. Try traceroute to detect where possibly packets fail to go further.

Hi, I fixed the problem. What I did wrong was adding the IP's from box B to box A and from A to B. I misread the manual. I think because of that the server tried to resolve local. As soon as I removed the IP's (other then server own ip's) the problem was gone.
