Tomcat welcome page - cannot access

I have installed tomcat7.x-x64 on WinServer2012.

On the WinServer2012 own, the Tomcat welcome page shows properly.

When I use my own computer, Windows XP, it can't access the page.

On WinServer2012 I have used a url like this:

http://x.x.x.x:8080/

This works OK.

On my computer I use a url like this:

http://x.x.x.x:8080/

An error occurs.

x.x.x.x -> the server's IP address

How can I visit the remote server(WinServer2012)'s Tomcat pages?

Thanks!

@Edward very likely your problem is related to firewall configuration. Either your WinServer2012 firewall does not allow connections to port 8080 OR if your two machines (server and desktop) are two different networks then there might be hardware-based firewall (router?) that may not be allowing incoming connections. I would check firewall configurations.
