Date
Tue, 25 Jun 2013
Summary
System Down Rule checking SSH logon/logoff is not broken when SSH logon fails because of a wrong password.
Technical Background
Argent Guardian Ultra uses PLINK.EXE to test connectivity with Linux/Unix servers.
The System Down Rule is broken if PLINK.EXE returns with a non-zero exit code.
Unfortunately, PLINK.EXE returns with a zero exit code when the server access is denied.
Resolution
Upgrade To Argent Advanced Technology 3.1A-1307 or later
