You need to completely disable selinux. There's something about it that VMware Server 1.x and 2.x both do not like. Putting selinux into permissive mode is NOT enough, btw. YOu actually need to disable it. selinux Cheers,Thanks, In fact I have selinux disabled and added port 8222 and 8333 for this purpose too. the problem still exists
You also need to make sure you have ports 902 and 904 open. These are used by the console. The way I got this working was to open all 4 ports for both TCP and UDP.
Yes, I have all 4 ports (902, 904, 8222 and 8333) opened for both udp and tcp. Really lost.
hope some one can offer hints
Thanks
Hope that helps!
Cheers,
Chris
