Centera connection issue

Hi all.  I am currently working with the XAM SDK 1.0 Patch 2 and have downloaded the VIM as well.  I am trying to run the C# .Net example application but am running into the "xam/connection failed" [XAMLibrary_Connect] error.  I have also attempted to use the XAMVerify tool and it also fails with the same error.

The connection string I am using:

"snia-xam://centera_vim!128.221.200.61?c:\\xam\\us2_profile3_rdqeDcw.pea";

Initially I was receiving the xam/vim not found (1011).  Utilizing these forums I realized I had not set the environment variables as required.  That being done I started running into the error above.  I downloaded perfmon.exe as suggested in another thread and found that my initial connection string was incorrectly typed.  That problem being fixed I am stuck and can't figure out why I am unable to connect to the online Centera device.  Any ideas?

I am currently running Windows XP SP3
