title: Cannot connect to couchbase server
body: <p>I cannot connect to a couchbase server that runs on a different computer of the same local network.</p>
  
  <p>The machine has the IP address 192.168.1.150. I use the <a href="http://docs.couchbase.com/developer/java-2.1/hello-couchbase.html" rel="nofollow" title="official hello-couchbase tutorial">official hello-couchbase tutorial</a> for the Java SDK. Thus, my code looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-java prettyprint-override"><code>Cluster cluster = CouchbaseCluster.create("192.168.1.150");
  Bucket bucket = cluster.openBucket();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The second line triggers:</p>
  
  <pre><code> com.couchbase.client.deps.io.netty.channel.ConnectTimeoutException: connection timed out: /192.168.1.150:11210
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there any way to narrow down the reason for the connection failure? The webclient on localhost:8091 (in a browser of the remote machine)  tells me that the server is running.</p>
