ESXi 4.0 - vSphere Client/SSH issue.

I'm having an issue not being able to SSH to either of my ESXi hosts from workstations.

I also cannot download the vSphere client from http://xx.xx.xx.xx, although even the installation I already have is no longer connecting to either of the two hosts. (I've tried root and admin). I can ping both hosts, but cannot telnet to them.

The only access I have to the vSphere client is through vCenter...which can also SSH and Telnet into both hosts just fine.

I checked our *new* firewall, SSH is allowed and there has been no logs of the connections being rejected.

can you test with telnet,

e.g. telnet <ip address of host> 443

e.g. telnet <ip address of host> 80

test the above from vCenter Server and Workstations, what are the results?

xKincaidx I just configured my second interface to a 10 network and was able to get in (Thank you!)

I've configured a NAT policy for public web servers, but never for two internal subnets to communicate. Is it pretty straight forward?
