Description of problem:
When I run fedora-idm-console either as a user or root in Fedora 8, it will not connect to the server specified.
I have tried to run it with the command line argument "-a http://localhost:9830"
and by using the field in the dialog box.
Both produce the same error:

"Cannot connect to the Admin Server "http:/" The URL is not correct or the server is not running."

I ran the following command and attempted a login, producing the same error, which produced the following output:

# fedora-idm-console -D -a http://localhost:9830
