Hi helix, you were right about the ports. I could now resolve the Connection refused error, thanks! Populating the index now gives me a "org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Forbidden". I assume this is equivalent to the 403 now, right? I've checked that localhost is 127.0.0.1, and also that 127.0.0.1 and my local IP are in the allowed addresses.
I'm puzzled...
