Resolution:
Normally when the RVRD is started, an ephemeral port is used for HTTPS connections. This makes accessing it via HTTPS through a firewall impossible, as you can never know what port will be used and thus what port to allow.
You will be able to connect to the interface using the HTTP port (default is 7580 if unused), but the links will redirect you to the HTTPS port. Your efforts will be further hampered if another process is using port 7580 as an ephemeral port will be used for HTTP as well.
The problem can easily be resolved by using the "-http" and "-https" options when you start the rvrd. For instance,
rvrd -store mystorefile.cfg -http 7580 -https 7582
If either of the ports specified are used by another process, the rvrd will exit.
