[monit] Help trying to access monit httpd from remote computer

[Jake Conk]

Hello,

I am trying to setup monit so that I can access it remotely from my  
computer because I don't have a gui or a decent browser installed on  
my server to use the monit interface so anyways this is what I have in  
my config:

/etc/monitrc:
...
set httpd port 2812
        allow monit:secret
...

I then used lsof to make sure it was running which it is:

$> sudo lsof -i | grep monit
monit     6173   root    5u  IPv4 685820       TCP *:atmtcp (LISTEN)

It is actually running but when I try accessing it from my client  
computer (http://192.168.1.20:2812) it doesn't load anything, I just  
get an error message saying couldn't connect. On the server I have w3m  
(a text based browser) and it does load the monit web interface  
(hardly legible) but this is not what I want, I want to be able to  
access it from my computer.

So do I have to do anything else to allow monit to be accessible from  
any of my client computers? If I added "and use address  
192.168.1.20" (which is the local ip address of the server) and check  
with lsof then it doesn't show anything running on port 2182 which I  
find a little fishy but I don't know what else to check.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks,
- Jake
