VMware View Client
We have several ESXI 5.0 servers in our environment and am really tired of firing up my windows 7 VM and using Vsphere client to be able to see the "VM's". I looked into using VMware View Client for linux and have never been able to get it to work. When I connect, I get:
PHP Code:
Untrust View Connection:

Failed to connect to the View Connection Server. The server provided an invalid certificate: The certificate authority is invalid or incorrect.

view certificate

blah blah blah 
I found in their manual what one should do to circumvent the issue and decided to try to import the certificate:
PHP Code:
For instructions on importing a root certificate stored in this location, see the procedure called "Importing a
Certificate into the System-Wide Certificate Authority Database" in the document at

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSSL. 
but to no evail. When I tell the client:
PHP Code:
do not verify server identity certificates. 
it give me a HTTP error 400. Has anyone on this planet had any success with this?

vmxnet3

VMXNET3(9)							   Open VM Tools							VMXNET3(9)

NAME

       vmxnet3 - vmware kernel module

SYNOPSIS

       modprobe vmxnet3

DESCRIPTION

       This is a Linux kernel device driver module that drives VMware's second fast networking device. As it is backed by real (virtual) hardware,
       it should be automatically loaded by hotplug or udev as needed. Unlike the older 'vmxnet' hardware, the 'vmxnet3' hardware does	not  morph
       and as such the modprobe-related logic isn't necessary.
