vmware console esx 4.0

Hy, i,m trying the trail version !

I can not connect to the consol of a virtual server. I can connect to the vSphere client.
I would like to connect to the consol of our virtual servers.
I got an error:
The Server returned an erroro
Unable to connect to the remote server

I use VMware Console,
hostname ,
tab information - computer * is VMware server.

I installed VMware vSphere PowerCLI

Hi
The way you set it up make the information appear in the footer as soon as the session is selected
