Administration password not recognized

I am having a problem with my version of FileMaker Server 5.5v4. It's running on Mac OS X 10.1.5 right now on a quicksilver G4.

It seems that when I try to access the Remote Administration system, it tells me that my password is incorrect. I have tried time and again retyping passwords in both the server and the client, and restarting the server app as well as the whole machine. I cannot get into the Remote Admin.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I've had this trouble for some time too but made solving it a low priority. Its a G4 (AGP Graphics) with FMS 5.5v4 on 10.1.5.

A colleague has remote admin working on a similar machine running 10.1.5. The only difference I know about is that he has moved the FMS folder to the Applications folder (not left it in the root of the hard drive where it's installed by default).

I just moved the FMS folder from the hard disk root into the Applications folder and now the remote administration password works!
