Looks like you might running the amqp 0-10 / latest management server and the amqp 0-8/9 M2 brokers.

Where/what did you download?
The version of amqp 0-8/9 is M2...
Figured it out! Whilst trying to get version info on the management console (downloaded it and broker from here by the way http://archive.apache.org/distincubator/qpid/M2-incubating/Java/) I discovered the -m switch that specifies the management port the broker listens on. I didn't know what the default management port was but by explictly setting it at startup I can now connect the console.

So thanks, your line of questions turned up the answer.

Below are some notes based on my experience if anyone is interested - dont' know if they should be posted anywhere? They're all cosmetic...

* qpid management console doesn't contain version info, including a version or build number in the about box might be handy (couldn't answer your question about what version it is, other than by the fact it came in a M2 zip file). * docs (at least the docs I've read) don't make it clear that management connections are not to port 5672. Suggest making it clear which port to connect on in getting started description. To be fair, I did (eventually) spot the url in the README and saw this page http://cwiki.apache.org/qpid/configuring-qpid-management-console.html I had sort of tuned out the README as it's mainly about unix start up scripts.
* qpidmc could default the qpidmc port to 8999 rather than ask for it?
* http://cwiki.apache.org/qpid/qpid-java-faq.html when viewed in FireFox the whole page is hidden/shown under "What is Qpid?"
