- SSL is configured on the server side. It was described in the old Tryton-Wiki 
(see: https://github.com/mbehrle/tryton/blob/wiki/InstallationonopenSUSE.md )
- By default *no* SSL is set up
- Generally the port needs to be open on the server, not on the client 
(outgoing connection). For testing you may open on the client as well

Yes: Server and client need to have the same major version - 4.2 in that case.

Difficult to say w/o further information. I guess the routing is not set 
properly. Try to ping the server from the client.

Unlike in other systems for the mass market, package management under Linux 
usually works very well, so there is no need to reinstall everything.  

Good luck,
