Problem in communication nim client with nim master

Hello, I have an AIX6.1 machine which is a nim client to my nim master which is also AIX6.1 machine. I had some problem to perform an installation on my client using
Code:
 smit nim

. i removed /etc/niminfo file in order to do the initialization again but when i run the command
Code:
 niminit -a name=client -a master=master -a connect=nimsh

i get the following error message: "0042-006 niminit: (init to master) rcmd A remote host refused an attempted connect operation." any idea what could be the problem? Thank you

forget about the previous post. i find the problem. it was the nimesis daemon that wasnt active on my NIM master. i run the command
Code:
 lssrc -g nim

and i get the result: Subsystem Group PID Status nimesis nim inoperative i started the subsystem
Code:
 startsrc -g nim

and now the problem is solved
