All you need to do is 

> Create file with the name locked.properties

> Add line "checkOrigin=false" (without quotes)

> Save and copy this to C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware View\Server\sslgateway\conf folder on all your connection servers.

> Reboot them or restart connection service on them one by one like you normally do
