I am trying to setup Active Directory authentication for my ESXi 5.1 Hosts. I can successfully add the Host to the AD Domain but can't login.
- Firewall on the Host shows AD ports wide open.
- Domain Controller is in the same network as the Host.
- "Authentication Services" show the correct Domain under "Domain Settings". "Trusted Domain Controllers" doesn't show anything.
- I created an "ESX Admins" group in AD (assuming this is still the group that is automatically added to Hosts).
- Tried all login formats: user@domain.com, domain\user, and just the user but, can't login with any.
I have done this previously in a separate ESXi 4.1 environment a while back and didn't have any issues. Has something changed with 5.1.
