Fusion 10.0.1 ESXi Console MKS:Login (username/passwors) incorrect

[hdoansf]

Hi,

I just upgraded from 8.5 and now I get this. error. MKS:Login incorrect error.

Whenever I try to open up a console window of a virtual guest on a remote vsphere/esxi server.

I've read many issues (on Windows/vsphere clients). I dont have a DNS issue or firewall issue.

I've hard coded the names in my /etc/hosts files. Everything worked prior to 10.0.1.

I've telnet port 902 which is fine.  My other machine (Fusion 8.5) on the same network does not have this issue. Only the new 10.0.1
I've tried to add pref.authd.client.port = "902" in my ~/Library/Preferences file to see if that would work ( this was a work around for PC users).

Nothing.

Hi,

We need Fusion UI log to do more investigation，please attach the fresh log "/Users/xxx/Library/Logs/VMware Fusion/vmware-vmfusion.log". ( Re-launch Fusion and do your steps)

Here you go.

I can remote start and stop,login into ESXI.

Errors around here. Looks like a SSL error with the default certificate. We run in a lab so we dont issue certs:

Greetings,

   I am experiencing a similar issue.  I was using Fusion 7 and updated to 10.1.0 and received the same pop-up message.  However, in my logs it is:

Same problem here! With older versions it works like a charm - with 10.1.1 NOT.
