C H A P T E R 2 Installing VMware GSX Server
67
Configuring Web Browsers for Use with
GSX Server
If you intend to run the VMware Management Interface in Internet Explorer 6.0 on a
Windows system, you must take certain steps to configure Internet Explorer properly.
These steps are needed whether the browser is running on a GSX Server Windows
host or you are using a Windows client machine to connect to a GSX Server host.
In order to run the GSX Server in-product help from a console on a Linux system, you
may need to link to the location of Netscape on the system, if it is different from the
location where GSX Server expects it to be.
The configuration steps allow you to perform the following activities:
• Launching the VMware Virtual Machine Console from the Management
Interface on an Encrypted Server on page 67
• Connecting to the Management Interface on a Proxy Server on page 68
• Launching Help in Netscape on a Linux System on page 69
Launching the VMware Virtual Machine Console from the
Management Interface on an Encrypted Server
You can launch the VMware Virtual Machine Console from the VMware Management
Interface automatically. In order to do this in an Internet Explorer 6.0 browser on a
Windows system where SSL is encrypting your GSX Server remote connections, you
must ensure that the
Do not save encrypted pages to disk option is disabled.
For information on encrypting remote connections, see Enabling and Disabling SSL
for Remote Sessions on page 122 .
When this option is enabled, Internet Explorer does not save any files to disk,
including the files it needs to hand off to helper applications. This prevents the
console from launching automatically.
Caution: This option may have been enabled deliberately at your site to prevent the
saving of sensitive files to disk. Disabling it may permit other sensitive information to
be saved to disk.
Caution: Some patches installed when you run Windows Update reset this setting, so
you may need to repeat this process after you run Windows Update.
To disable the option, complete the following steps.
