Eric Reitz posted the following steps on his blog about how to connect to VMware Server with the VI Client.

  1. You will need to install the Virtual Infrastructure Client (VI Client) 2.5.
  2. You will need to have your ports open if you have your firewall up the defaults it takes are 8333 (SSL) 8222 (normal)
  3. On the VI Client for server put in https://<servername&gt;:8333 or http://<servername&gt;:8222 or what ever ports you choose at install.
  4. Then add your Admin account to the host for Username and Password
