---------------------------------------------------------------

Some notes:

  * sub grand_access() configures the ESXi server after user click Connect! 
button:
  - it mounts user's NFS storage, 
  - add user, set reservation password (this requires a change in 
/etc/pam.d/system-auth to allow less complex passwords used be VCL) and add 
admin role.
  - it also scans and register all VMs on user's storage, so user is presented 
with all the VM he/she already have, just need to power ON. 

* sub sanitize() will return 1 if user never clicked the Connect! button. ESXi 
image won't be reloaded, it take some time to reload bare-metal on HS22 
server...

* to get Public IP address, ESXi.pm module runs 'esxcfg-vmknic -l' on reserved 
ESXi server and looks for IP address assigned to vmk1 interface.
