This means that the XMPP connection between client and server got interrupted from the server side, which leads me to the following hypotheses:

  - you have networking problems, like dropped packets, which broke the connection;
  - server has interrupted the connection because two clients have the same OSAD auth credentials (identical osad-auth.conf files across different hosts). This can happen if some clients are cloned virtual machines, cure is simply to delete those files and they will be automatically regenerated;
  - client tools version is badly outdated.

After checking the above I would recommend a Wireshark capture to figure out what went wrong. At least you should be able to see if there are networking issues or not. Here are instructions and commands for SUSE Manager on SLES:

In your setup instructions are still valid, while commands need a little tweaking.
