[SOLVED] Cannot use Web interface to Desktop from another PC

[Sami]

I have Zimbra CS and Zimbra Desktop running satisfactorily on an Ubuntu Linux machine. When I have Zimbra Desktop running, I can use a browser at the same time to http://localhost:7633/desktop/login.jsp and get into my e-mails via a web interface.

However, when I do this from another PC on the same network, I get:

Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 192.168.0.131:7633.

I can go to another PC on the network and open an HTTP to the server (which also runs on the same Ubuntu box) and I can also use https: to get to the server's administration pages.

What's the reason here - I do not have a firewall on Ubuntu, at least not as far as I know!

Can it be unblocked? I have been thinking it would be useful for viewing a Gmail or Yahoo account on a client machine, but from another location.

Open the config file <install>/jetty/etc/jetty.xml with a text editor and remove the line <Set name="host">localhost</Set>. Save the file and then restart the back end server.

Many thanks indeed jjzhuang - I'm sure that will work... When I get back to try it!
