Resolution

Configure Primary to be an authenticating Server as follows:

NT : Go to Start --> Programs --> RSA ACE/Server --> Configuration Management

Under Legacy Agent Server Identification verify that the Primary is listed as Acting Master
Hostname and IP should match the Hostname and IP of This Server ( Found in Configuration Management )
Restart the Primary ACE/Server

UNIX : Run sdsetup -config
list the Primary as Acting Master
Hostname and IP should match the Hostname and IP of Primary ACE Server
Example :
        PRIMARY ACE SERVER:                                primary_name.domain_name.com
        PRIMARY ACE SERVER ADDRESS:                xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
        THIS SERVER:                                               primary_name.domain_name.com
        THIS SERVER ADDRESS:                               xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

        ACTING MASTER SERVER:                              primary_name.domain_name.com
        ACTING MASTER SERVER ADDRESS:              xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
