Demo Version - Client Server Setup?
I installed the 60-day trial version of Quality Manager on my laptop. The installation is running Tomcat, so my laptop is running as the server. Is is possible to connect to this instance of Quality Manager from other PCs on my LAN? I tried just browsing to the login page, replacing the "localhost" with my laptop's IP address, but that didn't work. Is there someplace where this can be configured to work?

Turned off my firewall on my laptop (server) and it worked fine.

Hi Christopher
You don't need to turn off your firewall completely - just open the https port (9443 on the default installation). Also - before you do too much work on this setup - you should always use the same name or ip address when you install/setup and then access the server. I tend to set up my etc/hosts file on my laptop (which is acting as a server) as jazz-server at address 127.0.0.1 - then you can repeat this on other PC's on your network (add the jazz-server entry but give it the actual IP address of your laptop). Alternatively - use the name of your machine (just check you can ping it from the other machines on your network using the laptops name first)
