Linux Access Gateway ERROR: Connection Refused apply a change in NASH

Whenever the Apply command is invoked in Nash, the connection error above would get reported. Any change to the current configuration would show the message (activate a log, change a DNS configuration or simply apply nothing).
As soon as this happens, configuration changes from the Admin Console would also report errors.

Fixed in IR2. The Admin was making changes to the Linux Access gateway (LAG) rewriter profile. There were two profiles created and both profiles overlapped in the data to be rewritten. The end result is that the management service on the LAG crashed (/etc/init.d/novell-vnc status would report the VCC service and connection services as down)
