I've already seen a lot of the other entries for this problem, but their solutions haven't resolved my issue yet. I can access the SMC from the server, but not remotely. I've looked into permissions, but nothing has changed. As near as I can tell the server is not paused. Remote connections are being denied, and agents can't connect either.
Yes, I did watch the upgrade movie online, read the release notes for the upgrade, and did the Best Practices upgrade according to this document:

None of these solutions helped my issue either:

I'm running a database repair from the SMC to see if that works. I believe it has been mentioned a few times for other issues.
Any other ideas for things to try?
