Hi,
I don’t usually use the command-line tools as they are pretty terse and only really useful if you want to set up things like SSL or other advanced functionality. Instead I use the visual tools like P4Admin, P4V etc. and run the server as a service (P4S).
I have a few questions that might help narrow down your problem:
- Is the Perforce service running?
- Can you access your server via P4Admin?
- When you initially installed your server, did you configure it for remote access or are you now trying to remotely access a server that was initially set up locally?
