Webclient not authenticated

Dear All,

When I try to login with my Windows domain account to the webclient I'm receiving this error message.

"Client is not authenticated to VMware Server XXXX:10443".

However it logs me in and it seems I have admin access, I can do configuration changes, but I don't see my Vcenter Server nor any VMs. My domain account is also a member of the local administrator group where Vcenter is installed. Vcenter runs on a Win2008 R2 server.

To make it work I log in with the local machine account which is in the administrator group of the Vcenter server. This works fine. But I would like to use my domain account for SSO.

Recently I upgrade my Vcenter 5.5 server to the latest release and I hoped this would fix my issue. Unfortunately it didn't.

Here in the forum I read that it might be an issue with the Inventory database and a reset could fix it. I'm not sure if there are any drawback if I reset the inventory database and if it is really the fix for my issue.

Any hints are highly appreciated.

Edy
