Hi L1nuxExp3rt,

To log onto a SmartCentre you need to be defined as an administrator on the SmartCentre (i.e username/password) and possibly a GUI client depending on whether this was locked down or not (i.e trusted IP addresses can only access SmartCentre). You have the previous administrators username/password. Is your host defined as a GUI client?

Furthermore, can you telnet to the SmartCentre from your machine on port 18190? If you can telnet on this port, It means TCP/IP connectivity is allowed and working from your machine to the SmartCentre. SmartConole uses this port to talk the SmartCentre. It may be worth re-installing SmartConole.

Hope this helps.
