plesk not accessible on 127.0.0.1

[Brian LaFleur]

I have installed Plesk 9.3 and got the following message

Congratulations!
Plesk has been successfully installed on your server.
To complete the system configuration, please proceed to URL:
https://localhost.localdomain:8443/ or
https://127.0.0.1:8443/
Use the login name 'admin' and password 'setup'.

Further, use the following commands to start and stop Plesk:
"/etc/init.d/psa start" and
"/etc/init.d/psa stop" respectively.

All Plesk control panel documentation is available at

This is a hosted server, which I don't have access to local host. How do I complete the configuration with out localhost access?

Do you have any other real IP assigned to server except 127.0.0.1? Also hostname should be in FQDN format.

Thanks, I figured it out, netstat -a showed 8443 bound to all IP, but I had iptables blocking access to it, and the installation message lead me to believe that it was only accessible via the localhost address. Once i disabled iptables, I was able to access it via my regular IP.
