VMware Infrastructure Client connectivity

[nitrobass24]

At work we have a IT Lab for us to test new tools, and stuff for our audits.
They have installed VMware Server2.0 and the VMware infrastructure client but for some reason we cannot get the client to connect to the server.

I can log into the server using the web UI and it works, but the client cannot connect.
I have tried the hostname, IP address, localhost, 127.0.0.1...nothing works.

Any suggestions?

Which client are you using? IIRC, the ESX/vC client doesn't talk to server, but I haven't used server in 3 years.

<serverIP>:8333

It works great - much better than the web UI in my opinion.

Thank you
I thought you only needed 8333 for the webui so I was leaving it off.
