Check if the webserver is listening:

ss -tnl | grep 8000
LISTEN     0      128          *:8000                     *:*

Hi @SamHTexas ,

Can you clarify your question? Are you unable to access Splunk Web UI after installing Splunk Enterprise? 

Have you looked at the below,

https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.2.0/Admin/LaunchSplunkWeb 

Specifically if you are trying to access via remote browser look at the last paragraph in the above link.

Probably there is fw or SELinux enabled for that port for denied remote access.

Just check those and then turn those off based on ports + ip's from where you want to access that service.
