Dear all,
I just installed VCenter on a Win 2012 R2 server using the installation media and using the Simple Install method, with a local SQL express 2008 R2 Database instance (all default).
Whenever i try to log to the vSphere Client i get the error: The vSphere Client could not connect to server.local. The server took too long to respond (The command has timed out as the remote server is taking too long to respond.)
I can log in just fine using the administrator@vsphere.local account so there is a problem with Active Directory link.
I have added my user to the Administrator group in VCenter.
There is an identity source created at install time for our domain of the type Active Directory (Integrated Windows Authentication)
