Hi All,
I've spend more than two days on this already and I'm absolutely clueless by now. Was hoping someone here can help.
I have one vCenter in my home lab with one ESX. Bought a second ESX and I'm trying to add it to my vCenter without success.
I already deployed a new vCenter installed different versions of ESX no luck.
Right now I have a vCenter 7 and the ESXi host I'm trying to add is running 6.7.
When I try to add the host to the vCenter I see the folloing in the vmauthd.log of the ESX host:

ON the vCenter side I see those errors in the vpxd.log

Any ideas?
