Access a system URL in the network

Question

I am trying to access the url localhost:8088/openbravo from the network. The local IP of the system is 192.168.1.101/openbravo. But when i try it from other system in the network, it doesn't work. Is there any setting that i need to do.

i added the ip address in the hosts file of the local system. But it didn't work too.

System is windows 2008 server 64bit.

-- Thanks

Answer 1

With it being Server 2008, have you disabled the Windows Firewall to see if it will work. It may be blocking incoming connections from that port from the other local networked machine. After the test, then you can reenable and add a firewall exception for the tomcat port of 8088.
