ok, so I have the exact same problem when I try Vcenter.. BUT I think I get that we could modify the script issued so that it would use %5c to try this-- could you please Identify exactly where and what script to modify to replace this? I think I can if I dig enough but it'd help alot if you knew/know where it is and I'll try this.
meanwhile connectivity on my system works.. (as far as I can tell)
thanks!!
