Admin client cannot connect to VM (local)
« on: July 08, 2020, 11:00:48 AM »
Strange issue here-

On my Desktop - I'm running a RHEL VM on VMware Workstation ... with CMOD 10.1 and DB2. Everything is up and runnign fine.

I can putty in from my desktop where the VM is running, and my laptop across my network. But I cannot connect to the admin client. Suspect it's a simple network/firewall on the windows 10 PC's, but not sure.

Also - Could it be a connection setting in the VM that I have to work?

Probably need to open port 1445 on the Linux OS firewall.

Tired that :) One of the first things I did when I stood the box up.

In the past, I've set some VM's up the SAME EXACT way, but didnt have this issue.

If your version of RHEL has changed, they often make dramatic changes in how firewall commands are issued.  You may need to update your cookbook.  In the past it's been iptables or ufw, now there's a 'firewall-cmd' command.
