Dell OpenManage Server Admin stopped working

Hi All!

Got a DELL PE2800 running Server 2003 & Exchange that has been chugging along fine, with little or no problem for years.  Now all of a sudden, the Open Manage Server Admin has stopped working.  Not sure exactly WHEN - I used it last about 3 weeks ago, and it was good then, but not now.

When I try to start it, IE tells me it "Can't find the Server" and the "Page could not be displayed".  I get the same result if I try to get to https://<server IP>:1311 from the LAN.

The Secure port Server service will start OK, then seems to stop by itself for no apparent reason....but I can't connect even when it IS running.

However, if I TELNET to port 1311, something responds (I get the flashing cursor).

Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot this?

thanks!

Guys:  Good thoughts on the latest version thng.  I don't think it's been updated since it was installed back in like '06 <grin>.  Don't think anything new has been installed -  it's just been "doing it's thing".

I'll have to wait till the weekend for an opportunity to reboot....I'll let you know how it goes.  Thanks!

Good luck.
Sorry for the absence on this....while trying to uninstall the current version it asks for the original install disk.....of course nobody knows where it is or even what version it is so we've been trying to track that issue down.

Any suggestions?
