Cannot connect to gms.dll from another computer, local works

[Robin]

Hi,

I'm trying to install the groove 2007 server.
Installation is fine and when I connect to the gms.dll via IE on the local
machine I get "Server is alive".
When I try to connect to the http://<hostname>/gms.dll from another computer
I get an "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"...

Server is on W2K3 R2 SP2, SQL 2005 SP2
Hope someone can point me in the right direction. If you need more info
please let me know.

No client thread programs installed like Norton etc...

Thanks,
Robin

Hi Robin,

Can you check and make sure that the IIS service is started? On the server
itself, can you get to http://localhost/gms ? Does the server have a fully
qualified domain name?

Also, can you telnet from another computer to the server over port 8009?
