Hi.
I am not able to connect the AnywhereUSB/5 to a Windows 2008 Standard x64 server running on VMWare ESX.
I have installed the latest driver downloaded from www.digi.com. When trying to connect, a found new hardware wizard is displayed but Windows is not able to find the correct driver for AnyshereUSB Remote Hub.
I have several boxes working on Windows 2003 x86 hosted on VMWare ESX.
Hi.
Looks like the issue is still not solved. Replaced the hardware today. The new box acts the same way as the old box. I does not connect to the Windows 2008 server.
I have no problems connecting the hardware to a Windows 2003 x86 server. The problem is only on the Windows 2008 x64 server. The hardware seems to work. It look like a driver problem on Windows 2008.
Are you sure you’re using the right AnywhereUSB driver? Only the latest driver (v2.70) supports Server 2008, and you would need to use the 64-bit variant. Here’s a link:
The PID of 0201 tells me that this unit has that problem where it was serialized incorrectly.
You can work around this by manually adding new hardware (vendor Digi / product AnywhereUSB). Most likely that’s how the other Windows PC got it installed.
