Thats great thanks.

    I agree that my problems were probably certificate or firewall
problems as I have now tested my client on the same machine that the
ofbiz server is on and everything works just fine...

Many thank for your information.  I'll give it a go and then retry on a
machine other than that that ofbiz is running on.
