Server Monitor is not connecting to Server but Server Admin does

I have a Leopard Server up and running. Also the internal network is setup correctly (changeip -checkhostname). Now I want to monitor that server from a Mac OS X Leopard laptop with the Server Monitor tool. So I installed the Administration Tools on the laptop.
Now I can administer and manage the workgroups but I CANNOT monitor it with the Server Monitor. I setup the server with its IP address and the same user name I use to connect using the Server Admin. The log just states *Failed to contact the server*. Again I work with the Server Admin and Workgroup Manager on that server without any issues but the Server Monitor does not work and it even *does not work locally* on the server itself.
Any pointers?
Thanks - Andy

He's right, it doesn't work on anything other than an xserve-
what are you running leopard server on?
if it IS an xserve, this was my problem.
I had my ethernet coming in on EN3- a PCIx card.
Guess what? Server monitor doesn't talk to anything other than EN0 or EN1 out of the box.
You SHOULD however be able to view the xserve itself- using 127.0.0.1 (worked for mine)
This kbase article put me in the right direction-- specifically the IPMITool
to conifigure lights out management(you HAVE to use it if you're using anything other than EN0 or EN1)

  • Mac software not connecting to internet, but installed software does. How to fix?

    iTunes, Safari, App Store, etc. behaves as though there is no internet connection. Loading bar on Safari is frozen, iTunes can't access Gracenote for burning CD's. Google Chrome works perfectly fine, Guitar Pro works fine, Evernote works. I've never encountered this problem before. I've tried restarting the computer, shutting it down and turning it on again, and looking for answers on Google. Can anyone here help with this?

    You should be able to connect via Ethernet, and that method is simpler than debugging wireless.
    the Ethernet light turned Green and said it was connected, but still no internet...
    What exactly do you mean by "still no Internet? "
    Sometimes you can be connected perfectly well, but problems with Domain Name Servers (DNS) can keep you from loading Web pages.
    Try this "litmus test". Get your Ethernet connection green light. Enter this in your browser:
    http://17.149.160.49
    if you get to Apple, Inc, you are properly connected.
    http://apple.com
    If the symbolic name does NOT connect you to Apple, Inc, you have a Domain Name Server (DNS) problem.

    Hi,
    How do you connect the printer to the XP machine ? If USB, you need to make that machine as a Print server. Please try this:

  • Safari reports "computer not connected to internet" (but it is)

    Safari reports "computer not connected to internet" (but it is). Firefox works normally. What kind of issue is this with Safari? Corrective action?

    Hello. Safari 5 has a bug that causes you're router/modem to crash cutting internet access for many on it's users. This can last for several seconds in my case. Their are many threads here on the case and you can Google, "safari can't connect to server" and look for the most recent cases. The only work around that has worked for some has been open dns. Apple will have a fix soon.

    You've connected the iPad via cable to your computer, and your computer's iTunes is up-to-date ? If it's icon isn't showing then try one of these troubleshooting pages :
    PC : iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
    Mac : If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac - Apple Support
    If the iPad is disabled then you'll need to reset the iPad back to factory defaults, after which you can restore to your backup

    Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • HT4623 I can't update my iphone 4s iOS 6.1.2,  Message saying I'm not connected to internet but I am, why?

    Every time I'm trying to update my 4s with iOS 6.1.2, keeps showing message that I'm not connect to Internet, but  I am, anybody experiencing the same issue???? Help! 

    I was able to update my iPhone 4S to 6.1.1, BUT ::   I could not update to 6.1.1. from my iPhone.   I received the same message as everyone else saying that my iPhone was not connected to the Internet, which is was.  (I was able to access my mail etc. via Internet.)
    Instead I connected my iPhone to my computer via ITunes via the cable.   I then downloaded the software on my computer and updated the iPhone from the computer.   While I was downloading the software on to my computer, which is only connected to the Internet via ethernet, the same message as above appeared on my iPhone about not being connected to the Internet.   I pressed cancel.   The software continured to download on to the computer and then on the iPhone.

    Podcasts stopped downloading. Refresh dosent work. Tried connecting to iStore but error message says computer not connected to internet but it is.

    Here are several things that you can try that might help.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    Check Settings>General>Date &Time>Set Automatically>On.
    Reset your router by unplugging it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in again.

    Any help please.

    Let's see.... you don't install boot camp to begin with, you may be referring to downloading the Apple drivers.
    Known issue and need to check and change proxy and network settings -- yu are still in mac OS X
    You are in Windows and cannot connect to the internet ---- you are running Windows
    The only time yu install is after Widnows is installed and then install Apple drivers which are
