Web Service problems

MROSS · Post by **MROSS** » Tue Jun 15, 2004 8:30 pm

Using HostMonitor 4.42 on a windows 2003 server, running IIS and sharepoint services.
The HM webservice interface USED to work, and now i dont know what happened.

On my user page, i grant Admin rights from the IP addres of the server itself.. I try to go to http://servername:8080 i get prompted to authenticate. I enter in Admin and my pass.. but it gets rejected 3 times.
I see this in my syslog
RCI Authentication Failed: Unacceptable IP address Operator: Admin

What am I doing wrong?????

Open User Profiles dialog (menu User->Operators), add IP address of the Web Service system into "Accept remote connections from" list.

I did do that.
I put in the local server's IP
I put in my workstaton IP etc.
(feature request.. allow me to put a whole subnet range in there).

i restarted webservice.. i restarted HM.. same problem

H'm.. Does HostMonitor and Web Service located on the same system? If you have specified address of HostMonitor as 127.0.0.1 (option of Web Service), you should use 127.0.0.1 address to the list.
Also, have you marked item (IP address) in the list? HostMonitor ignores umarked addresses.

i found a typo
its working now
any way to add a whole subnet for access?

Do you really need whole subnet? If you add address of the system where Web Service is installed, its enough to connect from any browser thru that Web Service.
