Oren, I've got impression you're not using the Web Client? Pls install the Web Client from the 5.1 ISO. In 5.1 all authentication now goes to SSO not the vCenter anymore.
Pls have a look this two links, hopefully it helps:

Not sure what do you mean by "define your AD in SSO" where should I do it? I do have vCenter single sign on service running on my vCenter server but I don't see where to configure stuff related to the SSO.
I configured on each host in the Authentication services my domain but it is still not letting me login with my AD users.
Thanks for your help mate!
]]>If you logged on as domain user SSO will automatically connect to your AD and will recognize domain users you have. If you logged on locally during the upgrade you need to define your AD in SSO after upgrade. If you have backup, you can try to redo the whole process.
]]>Upgrade already done, I'm not aware of any connectivity issues while I upgraded but maybe…
My SSO and vCenter is the same machine (VM by the way)
Anything I can do now, after the upgrade?
]]>Hi Oren,
Make sure during the upgrade the connectivity to your AD from vCenter and SSO is established all the time. SSO behaves very differently if it's not connected to AD when you do the upgrade.
]]>I've had a similar problem that after upgrade from 4.1 to 5.1 I couldn't login to vCenter with any domain users. I can login only with a local user of the windows machine that running my vCenter. I still didn't find a solution for it, do you have any tips?
]]>Hi Simon, Which domain in the vCenter in? The domain with the groups? Which way is the trust and what type of trust? This scenario will be even more interesting when SSO is bought into the mix.
]]>Not sure if you have come across this or even if it's a supported configuration. For one of the VC instances I have the Users are in one domain but the Groups they belong to are in another domain and there is a trust in place. Good practice is to use groups, so is this a configuration that could be used because in my lab I haven't been able to get it working yet.
]]>You're welcome Michael, I've got this the hardway 🙂
I've mentioned this in Singapore VMUG, hopefully the VMware documentation team is willing to put something about it in the docs. It could be maddening like David said 🙂
