of course! 5556 is the port for 'ssl', and I was trying to use 'plain' !


nmConnect('weblogic', 'weblogic', 'localhost', '5556', 'base_domain', 'C:/bea103/user_projects/domains/base_domain', 'ssl')

edit C:\bea103\user_projects\domains\base_domain\config\nodemanager\nm_password.properties

and enter
username=weblogic
password=weblogic


nmConnect('weblogic', 'weblogic', 'localhost', '5556', 'base_domain', 'C:/bea103/user_projects/domains/base_domain', 'ssl')
