vmware-vmrc & Virtual Center

Hi,

The "vmware-vmrc" is installed as part of the Virtual Infrastructure Client installation. Wanted to know if you can use this command line tool to connect to and Authenticate to Virtual Center and then open the remote console of the target virtual machine. We can't use Web Access for 2 reasons. First is that Web Access is broken. Second, we have a support call in with VMware, however their response is the support for Web Access is best effort as VC 4.1 is going to be the last release of VC with Web Access. Ideally we would like to provide a console to some VMs without the full VC Client. In this case RDP doesn't cut it.

Thanks
