My ESSXi v5 server is configured to authenticate to active directory. However, if when starting the vSphere client installed from that host I flag the box marked 'Use Windows Session credentials' the logon connection fails -- even though the username box displays the correct domain username. If, on the other hand, I enter my session credentials directly in the username/password boxes, the login works. If I run the client as administrator I get a different error message - 'you cannot login with windows session credentials'.
While not a major issue, it is a constant irritant. Is this a feature?
Thanks.
