Failed to Use VMware vSphere Client 4.1 on Linux

After trying to install VMware vSphere Client 4.1 on Ubuntu 10.4, the final result is the same with I expected.

When I start to install using Wine, VMware require .Net Framework 3.5 SP1 for using. So, I continue to install .Net 3.5 through winetricks (you can reference here).

After finishing, I can see the display of vSphere Client 4.1. However, it got a serious error "Connection Failed".

The last conclution: "We can't use vSphere Client 4.1 on Linux at the moment" - so sad and disappointed :(



I hope that Linux community can make it work in the future ^^
