I have added the libraries to get ovftool 4.1.0 to run on ESX 4.1 but I am not getting beyond the pending connection. My test script:
#!/bin/sh
sh ./ovftool --acceptAllEulas --noSSLVerify --X:logFile=debug.log --X:logLevel=trivia -dm=thin -ds=datastore1 -n="RW Pulse"\
--X:ConnectRetryCount=2 --net:Rigwatch /vmfs/volumes/datastore2/RW_Pulse/RW_VM_TEMPLATE_OEL6.6x64_patrserver300b1.ovf\
"vi://root:<#PW#>@192.168.1.11"
The tail of the trivia debug log:
