Hi:
Gmetad and gmond is running on the same machine:

telnet localhost 8649
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.

telnet localhost 8651
..
...
....
</GRID>
</GANGLIA_XML>
Connection closed by foreign host.

SO gmond is haaving problems.
Wasn't I supposed to generate a gmond.conf file in the compilation and
installation?

No, port 8651 is the port "gmetad" listens on to answer  requests.

a) on the machine running "gmond" (gmond_host), do a

telnet localhost 8649

 Do you see any useful metric data reported?

b) on the machine running "gmetad", do a

telnet gmond_host 8649

 Do you see the same as with a)?

c) on the machine running "gmetad", do a

telnet localhost 8651

 You should see roughly the same output as b)

 Is "gmetad" running at all? Try to run it with "-d2". This should give
you some debug output.
