I am running vCenter / ESXi 5.1. When I run the vCenter client on the LAN, I am able to open the Consoles of the guest machines. However, when I run the vCenter client remotely I get the following message when I try to open the Console:
Unable to connect to the MKS: Failed to connect to server 192.168.123.141:902
However 192.168.123.141 is the internal LAN address of the ESXi host. (The vCenter server and the host are not on a Domain.)
I have tried forwarding port 902 to the vCenter machine and then to the ESXi machine, borth with no luck. I can connect to a Console internally, but not remotely.
How do I specify the domain or IP address that MKS will use to try to attach to a Guest console?
Thanks.
