Check that your AD / DNS is working properly.

Try typing the IP address of the connection server instead of the host name, also can you connect through the view portal rather than the client?

In order to help you, I will need more information:

Can you ping your view manager server from the view client station?

Can you rdp to the VMs directly?

Are you still experiencing the issue?

Yes, this dialog is displaying, when client in not in domain...

Okay, so if I understand you correctly, you are getting this dialog when trying to connect from a non domain machine, but you are able to connect without any issue from a machine that is in the same domain as the view manager server -- if this assumption is correct, please try the following:

First use the command below - if you have a solid SSL (443) connection, you should see blank window, from your command prompt type the following:

telnet View_Manager_Server_IP 443

If you get a blank window that means you can connect on port 443 to your view manager server from the work station.

Now, use IP instead of the server name on the Connection Server filed.

I recieve the same error message, I have two servers, standard and a replication server. Some clients connects without issue to one server and other connect to the other server with no issue but they cannot connect to both? I have specified the ip address of the servers and still the same issue??
