Can you telnet from BE server to Linux server (by NAME and FQDN) against Port 10000? (Note by default Microsoft no longer installs Telnet - but it is available within the operating system installer - so you may need to add it, and make sure you open the command prompt to start telnet as Admin)

And can you also telnet from the Linux system to the BE server on port 6101 (assuming a telnet command exists on the Linux system)

Colin_Weaver thanks for the advise. i will try to check this one. i would like to ask, why port 6101 (from linux to BE server) ? 

the linux server is not joined to the domain, is it OK?

can you please check the linux agent installation log for any problems.
