We have installed IIS8.5 recently. It is a dedicated Engine architecture.
getting the following error when trying to login from Windows client machine to designer/director/admin/manager
SECJ0395E: Could not locate the SecurityServer at host/port:{0} to validate the userid and password entered. You might need to specify valid securityServerHost/Port in ${WAS_INSTALL_ROOT}/profiles/profile_name/properties/sas.client.props file
Please help

I can telnet to the services tier machine from my windows machine. I can also access web console and IIS console. But I cannot login to any of the clients
Does anyone have any idea?

Yes I am doing that. I first thought it to be a port opening issue on client side but then found out that I can telnet to the server on port 9080 from windows client.
I tried the command:
telnet IP 9080
In the director client, I am using:
IP:9080
One thing I forgot to mention here is that on the same services tier, we used to have IIS 8.1. Recently we moved to IIS8.5.Not been able to login since then even once!! But the architecture/topology is the same. Also nothing has changed with regards to IP/ hostname. The same windows client was working absolutely fine with 8.1. The only change that has happened on all the three tiers is installation of 8.5 after completely removing IIS8.1. IP addresses and host names remain same on all 3 machines. Unless extra ports need to be opened for IIS8.5 which were not required for IIS8.1, there should not be an issue. As far as the installation document goes, I have confirmed that the required ports have been opened

The issue went away when port 9107 was opened from client. Interestingly enough, this port number does not find a mention in the Installation document. We came to know of this by co-ordinating with the n/w team and they informed us that when the client tries to connect it tries thru this particular port and since it is not open, it fails
Check the response file left over from your 8.5 install. The default file name is response.txt and will be in your InformationServer directory. You should find port 9107 in the file as well as many other ports. In my case I found a port 9105. The automatically chosen port numbers will vary based on your tiers and other instances or versions. You can override port numbers during the install too.
