I'm logged into the vSphere Client and I want to add a specific person from our domain to the Global Permissions list. I set the user prompt to domain and then I search for the name in the search box. However, this user does not show up. Our other users do show up though (even a couple calendar objects show up!). This user has been with us for over a year, so I don't know why he wouldn't have replicated by now. Is there some way to force a username in even when it doesn't find it naturally? Or, is there a way to make it update the list?

If you are using the HTML5 UI, try it using the flash UI. I have a lot of users and groups that show up in the flash UI and not in the HTML5 UI.
I actually started the habit of giving permissions with the PowerCLI, it's much faster than via the UI.
