Agent is showing Connection Refused to tentacle server

I am running 3.2.1 from the VMWare build.  The agent is giving this error in the pandora_agent.log

I see that this was an old security issue but I don't know how to fix it.

Make sure the tentacle service has been started for both the agent and the server.

Besides, if your agent is running in the same machine the server is, you might want to consider changing your transfer protocol to local.
