Account lockout on vsphere web client and ssh

Hello friends:

I have the following concern: I have a stand alone esxi version 6.7 server; I had to manage via ssh on the server to set up a trust relationship, and after a while the session ended. When trying to enter the esphere vsphere client via web, it does not allow me to authenticate. The ssh services are still activated on the esxi server, but it also won't let me log in there. The portal and the ssh client only tells me that the username or password is wrong. Can someone tell me why this happens?

Hi Asajm:

I was looking at the thread that you recommended, but I can't find any solution there. The server does not have session lock configured. As I mentioned before, the only problem is that I took a long time to close the ssh session and when I tried to enter via webAccess and through SSH, neither of them leaves me. If I try to enter from the black screen of the server (using the keyboard directly on the esxi server) the username and password work without problems. Try restarting network services from esxi console, but it doesn't work either. Any other idea ??
