Hey Forum.
Iat work I've setup an server with Vmware - for testusage.
I'll like to have a machine for testing new things. The problem here is that the machine are not responding for a minute or two, while using the machine.
The host are not responding on SSH - and not using Vmware console.
I'm able to ping the host - and able to scan using nmap and see that the ports are opened! But still just getting - connection refused.
after the minut are passed by - I'm suddenly able to log in again on both VMware and SSH --> What can that be for a problem.
I've checked my logfiles and are not able to find anything that should force this error. Here's some different logfiles from a periode whenm it brakes down:

ur saying that, once u start the VM, the machine doesnt respond to all attemps to using vmware console (i dont know that much bout SSH), when u start the vm, do u still see the the output in the vmware machine window, also check if ur system is not using most of its CPU cycles before starting virtual machine. also, is the VM not responding only happens at the beginning of the vm startup, or is it random.
