Hi guys  
I have just installed Fedora 33 on an old PC and all running well. I have also just installed Node-Red using the bash scrip [HERE](https://github.com/node-red/linux-installers) and i cannot seem to access Node-Red from another PC on a local network using the [http://serverIP:1880](http://serverIP:1880). I have have tried adding the 1880 port to firewall list on the server with tcp and upd protocols but still no luck.

Anyone know what other options i can try?

Thanks

Does node-red work if you access it locally on the machine it is installed on?

Can you ping that PC from the other machine?

On the node-red PC run  
`netstat -tulpn | grep LISTEN`  
and check that port 1880 is open.

Hi Collin  
Thanks for the response. Yes, am able to ping ip of server and Node red runs fine on local machine. I figured out how to add the node red service to the Fedora firewall through its web browser interface with root access and then it worked.

Thanks for your help.
