Hello,

this means that the connection is blocked. Either by the VMware host, or by any firewall in between.

Best Regards.

WBEM was working fine with all my hosts on ESX4.1. When i migrated to ESXi 4.1, i get the same error Socket Error # 10061 Connection refused or HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized (RFC error #401). I confirmed with VMWare, ESXi does not have a firewall. My ESXi and PRTG server is on the same switch, no firewall, anything else i can check?
