    I get the following error from the dp site when trying to use this tool:



    Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to x.x.x.x:5003 in /home/.sites/28/site1/web/tools/fmserverprobe/index.php on line 66
    Could not connect to database server at specified IP address.

    IP address either isn't running FileMaker Server or is firewalled then.

    Ok. Not that it is even worth the time, but is there a way to code the page such that it returns just that as an error, ie., server not running FM or port 5003 is blocked?

    In any event, the IP I was hitting is running FM Server, it is on, and functioning, however I get a connection refused when attempting to connect via the command line. I do not remember blocking that port, at least not to myself.. Me thinks it is time to look at my access lists..

    Thanx!

    Yeah, it's possible... although I don't think anyone actually uses it... :)

    True.. :)

    First time I ever noticed it. Kinda makes you wonder what good it is? ;) Anyway, I am an idiot keyed in the wrong hostname for our FM server...

    It's all goooood.

    Thanx.
