Hi Amit,

It is not possible, as both the systems are supposed to be in the same domain.

Try to access portal home page using the following urls , if it opens then you can access portal from VC :

http://<ip address>:<50000/irj/portal

If you have the hostname entry of the portal server in your host file then also try this url :

http://<host-name>:<50000/irj/portal

Thanks in advance,

Deep.

It is very possible. Provided that you have a dns suffix on both machines. You should never, never access the portal via it's IP or it's unqualifed domain name. You can try this to perform troubleshooting / connectivity issues but you really should try and use the fully qualified domain names at all times.
