Re: <BEA-002616> <Failed to
listen on channel

Hello,

I had a very similar problem. The problem wound up being the nodemanager ssh
shell command (using to control application servers from the administration
server host) was setup to run as root (as well as the rest of the WebLogic
related processes and files running as root or being owned by root) using a ssh
public key exchange but as that is forbidden in my environment I changed all the
ownership and execution of the weblogic processes and files to be nobody:nobody
as this was the requirement.

That's when I got the errors. Changing the weblogic configuration to run the
nodemanger ssh as nobody:nobody and setting up a ssh public key exchange between
the weblogic components as nobody:nobody on the different machines fixed the
problem for me. 

Of course, it's doesn't have to be nobody:nobody that you run these things as,
any user will work, but it's an authentication issue you're probably ha
