Can't get to Dell OMSA webpage on my server

It sounds like you need to open port 1311 in your firewall. (You may also want to restrict it to specific IP address ranges or other criteria, but this should get you going.)

    I'm running CentOS 6.3 x64 on a Dell PowerEdge R520. I have run the following two commands as per This Wiki

    sudo wget -q -O - http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/bootstrap.cgi | bash  
    sudo yum install srvadmin-all  
    

    All the related services appear to be running. But, when I try to access

    http://myserver:1311   
    

    the page doesn't resolve.
    When I try to access the webpage from the physical server, I am presented with a page that has 4 boxes and a question mark.

    Any Help Is Much Appreciated.

    EDIT: Apparently I suck a QA-ing.
    The problem was what when I tried to access the OMSA webpage for my server from another machine, the page would be "unable to load". But, if I open a web browser while I'm at the server that I have OMSA installed on, then I am presented with a page containing four boxes and a question mark. Turns out that I just didn't have the appropriate ports open. My apologies to you all for not being clear and thank you all for your help.

      You might want to spell out exactly what "doesnt resolve" mean. Do you mean the hostname or is there a 404 or connection refused? You might also want to explain what "physical server" means. Is there some virtualisation invoved, do you mean different server or what?

    Accessing the page at https:// also does not yield anything. I do not have an iptables block for port 1311.

    My only reject line reads: REJECT all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 reject-with icmp-host-prohibited

    That is going to drop all traffic...

    That did it! I had to explicitly allow port 1311 and http and https. Thanks for the help!
