I have come across this problem where elasticsearch cannot be reached outside of localhost! I can hook kibana up to it and it detects es. But when I try to hit a http request my browser (other server) it gives me a no known connection error. Here is what I see when I run ES, I think its a network problem... Anyone else see this?

Wondering if we should create a top message on discuss as so many users are asking this same question!
