BixAgent Startup error - Error creating listener
Hi, there. Thanks for the excellent product. My plan is to install the bixserver on a win machine and an agent on a linux machine (archlinux). I got the server to install and work. But I can't install the agent on the linux os.
Procedure: Downloaded the package, extracted it, and ran ./bixagent without modifying any configs (in sudo).
Problem message (-debug):

Some checks:
firewall is disabled, running under root doesn't fix it, ran it through debug and then posted the message.
I am not sure what the problem is. Can you please help me out here?
Thanks in advance!

You do not need to run it as root.
You do not need to disable the firewall.
Which Linux are you running? Are you running 64bit Linux?
