VM Accessing Site Protection Server


Hobadee

Question

I have Vectorworks installed inside a VM which I can't activate using our Site Protection Server

 

The host is Ubuntu based Linux and the guest is a clean install of Windows 7 x64.  I'm using VirtualBox as my VM host.  Vectorworks installed fine, but I can't for the life of me get it to contact the license server we have setup.

 

  • Other machines can access the SPS server and activate Vectorworks just fine
  • The server has no IP ranges blocked (No ISV options are set whatsoever)
  • The server is pingable from the guest VM
  • The server web interface is accessible on port 5054 from the guest VM
  • The server has plenty of licenses available
  • The guest VM has no firewall
  • The VM host has no firewall
  • I have tried setting the virtual NIC to both NAT and Bridge modes.
  • I have tried both connecting via both hostname and IP address
  • Port is correct.  (Default 5053)

 

 

No matter what I do I get a "Can't connect to the server" error.

 

Thoughts?
