Does the drac5 run a full webserver and you're just trying to get to the console? I've got a drac7 and to launch the console app I get a jnlp file, which is for java webstart. I've been unable to get it to work directly from my browser, so what I do is download the jnlp file and then execute javaws <filename> and it works as long as I don't wait longer than 30 seconds to execute it because the login credentials timeout.
