Smart Updae cannot access host

I'm trying to run HP Smart Update from my laptop (Windows 7) to update a Proliant DL380 G7 running SUSE 11. When I enter the credentials for Smart Update to access the host it trys to connect and fails with "Could not access host". If I try to SSH to the same host using the same credentials it works fine. So the id and password I am using is correct. Is there something else I am missing ?

Any firewall on PC or server?

Hope this helps!

With HP SU does the SUSE machine need to access a service on port on your laptop? If so, it might be network related too.
