adding esx 3.0.1 host to VirtualCenter 2.5 problem.

When I try to add an esx 3.0.1 host to my VirtualCenter 2.5 I get the following erro message:

Unable to contact the specified host xxxxxx. This might be because the host is not available on the network, there´s a network configuration problem, or the management services on the host are not responding.

Before, the esx server was connected to an VirtualCenter 2.0, so i Disconnected and Removed it from vc2.0, and manually removed the old VirtualCenter Server agent on the esx server.

I have made a clean installation of VirtualCenter 2.5. and manually installed the VMware VirtualCenter Server agent om my esx 3.0.1 server.

From vc2 i can ping the esx server so no network problems should exists. I have also tried to connect by ip and FQDN, but no luck.

How do I solve this problem ?
