Can't open server from workstation

[mleiser]

All of a sudden when I try the shortcut on my workstation it gives me a java message with a lot of gobblygook info. If I go into http://localhost:16000 I get it to work. How can I create a new shortcut on my desktop and have the start, programs, server work?

AFAIK the console application is a java applet that FMS distributes on demand. When FMS is updated, upgraded o some of the server features change (IP Address?) the applets become redundant.

Did you try:

http://your.server.ip.address:16000

This should download a new applet to your workstation.

I tried that before. It starts everything up but doesn't create anything on my workstation so I always have to do that to get into the server. The icon on my desktop and the program in start programs give me the same boc with a lot of java information. Can't copy and paste it to show you. Any other ideas?
