ESXi 4.1 Patching Issue

Hey all!  I'm currently patching our ESXi 4.1 hosts using the vCLI 4.1 utility.  I'm getting an error and it's starting to get very frustrating!

 

 

First off, I copied all of my patches here:

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vSphere CLI\bin>

 

 

Then I opened the vCLI utility and typed the following:

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vSphere CLI\bin> perl vihostupdate.pl -server XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX -username XXXXXX -password XXXXXX -i -b update-from-esxi4.1-4.1_update03.zip
It lists the bulletins/names as it should.  Then I run the following cmd:
C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vSphere CLI\bin> perl vihostupdate.pl -server XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX -i -b update-from-esxi4.1-4.1_update03.zip BULLETIN NAME-SG
username: root
password: XXXXXX
At that point, I get the following error:
Error connecting to server at 'https://localhost/sdk/webService': Perhaps host is not a vCenter or ESX server
I'll be honest, I'm not real sure what to do at this point.  Couldn't someone please help?!  THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!
