OK. Can discount that one.  I think.  I just tried from my Win XP wkstn.  Same response.
Back to the Server.

Then i would suggest start with basic TCP connection check - using
telnet (or putty or such).

You won't be able to do anything but if telnet does not connect then you
know it's network/firewall.

So from workstation run

telnet <server ip address> 12010

and see if it connects or errors out

Ahhh.  That failed.
I can ping the server IP OK.

Netstat shows the server PC.

Telnet is TCP which is actual transport also for EDBSrvr, http, etc so
it's a true connection test (unlike ping which is icmp).

You definitely have a network issue - we're back to firewall or AV
blocking something or EDBServer not properly listening on IP or on port
you expect.

NB! I assume your edbsrvr is running on 12010 which is default port

Yup.

Hi Raul,
Success!
I had totally ignored the fact that the Server had its Windows Firewal enabled for Local network.
Disabled it and all good now.

So, EDBSrvr is installed as a Service using "edbsrvr.exe /install" and automatically starts when windows restarts.

How do I now access it if I want to change any of its settings?
I tried running edbsrvr but that seems to try to start another server session.

Regards & thanks for your support.

AFAIK (and maybe somebody else offers other options) :

1. You can try checking the allow service to interact with desktop
However Microsoft is actively deprecating that feature so depending on
your OS your success may vary (based on your previous post i believe you
enabled interactive services from registry already as that's also needed)

2. You can stop the service and run edbsrvr interactively to make
changes and then stop it again and start service
