The newest edition of Trilead VM Explorer even has support for ESX 4i
Kodiak 0.0.4 has been released!
Kodiak version 0.0.4 release notes:
This version contains the following bug fixes:
SSL/TLS issues when connecting to VirtualCenter servers and using the SSL bypass.
This issue was composed of 3 separate cases: * Servers with self-signed certificates caused Kodiak to terminate the connection. Fixed. * Servers with an CommonName mismatch caused Kodiak to terminate the connection. Fixed. * Servers that would demand a client certficiate would terminate the connection when the TLS/SSL handshake was incomplete (i.e. lacking a certificate).
These 3 issues have been fixed, and their respective overrides may be accessed by using the SSL preferences panel.
Kodiak exits on hitting the "Q" key on linux when attempting to login. The "Cmd+q/Alt+Q" rapid menu handler has been temporarily removed while we troubleshoot this. When connected to more than one server, Kodiak's maps overlap and become cluttered/difficult to manage. This has been fixed...Maps will now automatically move themselves to make space for new connections.
Just tested, anyone else gets an Error #2032?
