Cannot access SIM web interface from remote workstation

Eric D Christensen — Fri, 27 Oct 2006 12:45:16 GMT

I just installed HP SIM 5.00.02 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Update 3.

Accessing the SIM Web GUI from the local host (http://localhost:280) works fine, but attemption to access it remotely from another workstation (http://simserver:280) just times out.

The server is pingable, I can connect via SSH, the existing Apache web server (http://simserver:80) works just fine, and there are no firewall rules blocking port 280. I'm obviously missing something here...

I can't seem to find any documentation on this, and I can't locate any log file entries thar provide any insite.

Any ideas?

I'd make sure port 50000 is open as well if you haven't already.

Typically the HPSIM Page is accessed via https:server:50000.

Using your http command above, it will still switch to the https connection on 50000.
