How to access to the proxy.xml?

[yannara]

This is my issue with Citrix XenDesktop 5.6, vCenter 5.0 end ESXi 5.0. It might be a very amateur question, but how I can access and modify the proxy.xml to accept http connections instead of https?

How can I accomplish this, and which one is service console, the view through vsphere client or the local/physical presense to esxi host? Gray/Yellow view?

1 Log in to the service console as the root user.

2 Change directories to /etc/vmware/hostd.

Maybe I´ve searched instructions for the wrong version or something.... but how can I access command line/shell in esxi 5?

Download the vSphere CLI.

Okay, thanks. I installed it, and now scratching my head, how to access ESXi. Is there any instructions for dummies for this one?

hello,

1. Start SSH service on the host under Configuration - Security Profile - services
   
2. download and install PuTTY
   
3. start PuTTY - type host's IP address and open connection.
   
4. done!

Thanks. What I´m doing wrong here:

C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vSphere CLI>esxcli -s esxi01.labs.dom -u root -p 12345678 --servicepath=/etc/vmware/hostd
Connect to esxi01.labs.dom failed
