Well, since nobody has really bothered to answer your question, I'll try.
What footer text is being displayed? Are you accessing the URL as https, not
http? If you go to https://locahost:8333/ you should be redirected to
https://locahost:8333/vmware/en/ Are you? What browser are you using?
Konqueror didn't work for me. Firefox worked great.
That's all I can offer for now...did anything I say help?
