Remote admin command line

[Anyjoe2000]

I have fms 8 installed and want to use command lines to control it. I have fmsadmin installed and working fine on my computer but the command lines seem to be trying to access server on my computer not the computer the server is on. I can connect to the server fine using the admin console. the ip of the server is xxx.xxx.xxx.1 and mins is xxx.xxx.xxx.10 and in the admin console the hostname is filemaker server. Im using the command window in windows and type fmsadmin list files and it returns an error saying xxx.xxx.xxx.10: ip address is invalid or unreachable error 10502. so how do i structure the command to reach xxx.xxx.xxx.1 ?

Did you try this...

fmsadmin list files -i xxx.xxx.xxx.1

The help system shows lots of different "flags" that you can use with the commands (-i is for IP address)

Try also

fmsadmin -h
