Hi Geoffrey,

Sorry to hear that you have run into difficulties.

Can you try with a simple TCP client, e.g.

nc 0.0.0.0 5672

?

What shows up in the server log when you do this?

By default Rabbit ships with the user/pass combination guest/guest, so  
without further ado that should work.

Don't want to split hairs but the address is legitimategrievance at rabbitmq.com 
, so you probably sent a message to a non-existent mailbox.

Here's one :-)

You need to specify the protocol version in your config file (refer to  
the .NET client manual).
This client is defaulting to AMQP 0-9 whereas Rabbit currently speaks  
0-8.

Your client will need to connect to the listen port of the tracer,  
i.e. 5673. By default AMQP clients connect to 5672.

HTH,
