First of all, I did not find a separate forum for vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager, so I opted to post in what I thought was the best alternative; vRSLCM is some kind of automation tool.
I'm having problem getting my (newly installed) vRSLCM 1.1.0.7-7359844 to register with MyVMware. The server needs to use a proxy to get online and it has of course been configured ("proxy.mydomain.local:80") but it won't register (I've obfuscated the real proxy address/IP). Anyone experienced this, and fixed it? It's a bit of a long shot, since it's a relatively new product...
The MyVMware token fetch seems to throw an error with username problems. I see this in /var/log/vlcm/vrlcm-xserver.log:

After 4 tries, it gives up with:

Both /etc/environment and /etc/sysconfig/proxy contains the proxy address and port. Testing manually, connecting to https://my.vmware.com with curl, works fine (giving a redirect address):

I've also tried manually setting HTTPS_PROXY and FTP_PROXY to the same proxy address/port in /etc/sysconfig/proxy, but to no help.
