Instructions on how to fix npm if you've installed Node through Homebrew on Mac OS X or Linuxbrew
OBSOLETE
This entire guide is based on an old version of Homebrew/Node and no longer applies. It was only ever intended to fix a specific error message which has since been fixed. I've kept it here for historical purposes, but it should no longer be used. Homebrew maintainers have fixed things and the options mentioned don't exist and won't work.

In ESXi 5.x, the built-in firewall does not allow VNC traffic to be received by the VNC server, even when an individual VM is configured to support this configuration. To complete this activity, the firewall has to be modified to allow the appropriate ports.
The below script can be run via the ESXi command line to setup the firewall rules necessary to run VNC. A few items to note:
Scripts assumes the firewall rules file is the default provided as by 5.0.0 update 2 build 914586 and/or 5.1.0 build 799733 (may work in other versions)
In order to persist settings after a reboot, it is necessary to copy the firewall settings to either a specific datastore mapped to the host, or the local persistent storage linked under the /store directory. Further, the either the /etc/rc.local (ESXi 5.0) or `/etc/rc.local
