On the server in the RackTables directory is there a directory named "gateways" with an executable file named "netcat" in it?

Hi infrastation,
Thank you so much for your answer. Indeed there was no direcotry called "gateways" in the path /var/www/racktables.
I copied over from the installation files to that path and give them executable permission but there are no changes.
Regards.

If you see the same message, this most likely means the script isn't in the right place. After you fix that you will need to configure the gateway as described here: https://wiki.racktables.org/index.php/RackTablesAdminGuide#Configuring_CLI_gateways_to_network_devices

As a side note, this is not a bug in the software, but a deployment/configuration issue, so your best support channel would be the racktables-users mailing list.
