Cannot remediate updates.

I have 5 ESX hosts and one vCenter. Two of my ESX hosts are offsite from the vCenter server.

I cannot remediate update baselines on the two remote ESX hosts. When ever I try, under task "remediate entry" I get "there are errors during the remediation operation."

Under the task "Install" I get "Operation Timed Out."

I downloaded the tarball from the vmware site and unzipped it and ran /usr/sbin/esxpdate update as root and got the following:
