Hi everybody,
this is kinda strange, i hope you can help !
-\> Elsaticsearch is up and running for weeks without failure on dedicated
root server with debian 6 "squeeze". As far as i know, there is no firewall
whatsoever. (checked with iptables -L)
-\> I can acess it from two different servers, no problems. never configured
anything
-\> But i can´t from another server. telnet myserver 80 works fine, but 9200
is always refused. curl reports error (7) connection refused. Any ideas ?

If you are running these servers in the cloud, I suspect you'd have to
explicitly set up rules to allow connection on port 9200.

Oh well it turned out that the hoster had a second firewall wich couldn´t
be configurated on the server.. At least there shoud be _something_ in the
FAQ. Thx anyway !
