Once installed and dotnet30 installed using winetricks the application runs but when you enter the server IP, username and password of the ESXi server and click login there is a connecting message which eventually changes 'Connection Failed' along with a popup "vSphere Client could not connect to 'server ip' The server took too long to respond (The operation has timed out)"
