Q: unable to remote administer server via server app.

On my brand new mac mini server, I am unable to login via the server app to administer remotely. 

 

Since I need to run the server headless, this is beyond frustrating. 

 

Using the admin acct, I attempt to login to the server, which is visible, has the correct IP address etc. 

 

It's as if the account doesn't exist or the password is wrong, however I know that this is not the case. 

 

I have checked the "allow remote administration using Server" box in settings. 

 

Anything I've overlooked?  Some obscure undocumented step? 

 

Update: I can ssh into the server.

 

Server is put into the firewall as allow, hopefully that's actually opening the correct ports.

 

Still unable to admin via Server app.

Mac mini, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4), Server 2.2.1
