Possible typo in vSphere 4.0 Hardening Guide

[ChrisS_UK]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this - vSphere 4.0 Hardening Guide (May 2010) - VSC07.

Instructions say to add the line <enableDebugBrowse>false<enableDebugBrowse/> to the vpxd.cfg file.

Doing so prevents the vCenter service from starting. To resolve the issue I updated the line to <enableDebugBrowse>false</enableDebugBrowse> (moved theforward slash to the start of the closing statement) which seems to have done the trick.

Was just wondering if this was a known typo / issue with the document or if I've just made a mistake implementing the change?
