Kevin,

Check your ipaddress using start->run->write CMD-> write ipconfig. If it is in network it will show ipadress, but if it is not in network, you need to configured loopback adapter and assign a ip. System ip address need to update in host file.

On which OS you are installing SM?

Hi

You can find your host file at C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc

Open the host file with notepad and enter you ipaddress and hostname(Ex:10.0.0.1 Hostname )
