I am working on creating a test suite for a project at work, where we will be testing our application on several operating systems from a central box (all vms). The box with the tests on is a CentOS server utilizing `apache-maven` for the tests. I am trying to test against a Windows 10 box running `selenium-standalone-server` but have had no luck so far. Here is the configuration for each box:

### CentOS

* Apache Maven
* IP address - 192.168.4.62
* Subnet mask - 255.255.255.0

**Sample Test**

```
package com.netsweeper.browsertests;

import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
import java.net.URL;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.*;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.*;
import org.openqa.selenium.safari.*;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.*;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.*;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver;

public class ReadyTest {
    @Test
    public void accessChrome() {
       try {
            WebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://192.168.4.60:4444/wd/hub"), DesiredCapabilities.chrome());
            driver.get("http://google.com");
            assertEquals("The page title should equal Google at the start of the test", "Google", driver.getTitle());
            driver.close();
            driver.quit();
        }
        catch ( java.net.MalformedURLException e) {
            System.out.println("Broken");
        }
    }
}

```

**Test Output**

```

### Windows 10

* Selenium Standalone Server
	+ Placed in `C:\Users\------\Documents\client_filter\selenium-server-standalone-2.53.0`
	+ Started with `java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.53.0` from said directory
	+ Correctly starts running
* Chrome Driver
	+ Downloaded and placed in `C:\Windows\System32`
	+ Starting it from command line works correctly, so it is in $PATH
	+ `C:\Users\Kendall Roth\Documents\client_filter> chromedriver.exe`
* IP address - 192.168.4.60
* Netmask - 255.255.255.0

However, the error above seems to indicate that the chromedriver is not in the right place to be found, even though it can be found from anywhere (due to being in path). The error was also displayed in the Windows console, and said the same thing.

I have looked around, but can't find anything that deals with a remote install of the Selenium standalone server. This link unfortunately did not work, but was similar to my issue (albeit on a local scale):
