Looks like a DNS issue to me. "remote name could not be resolved" implies that the hostname you entered for the connection to the iControl Portal (http://hostname/iControl/iControlPortal.cgi) could not be resolved into an IP Address.

 

 

Is this error just for this method call or do you have other method calls on the same connection object working?
