Pretty much all of my VMware use, for the past decade, has been local - as in, on the same machine. I do some VNC stuff, but I use a VNC client and not vSphere or the web interface.
But, I've seen people complain about your situation and the solution was password resets and changing the lockout value - 'cause their own monitoring apps were fucking with it.
More than that, I do not know. :-(
I'll get it eventually, if there is one thing I am its determined. Like vmware player? You should play with hypervisors its endlessly fun. See I don't have anything monitoring this host.
Yeah, I use the VMware Workstation Pro. I buy me a copy whenever I need to and I use it for absolutely nothing important.
I just smash buttons with it.
It's a very long story, so I'll skip it and simply say that I like to play with alternative operating systems - for absolutely no good reason. This is not a project. I do not write reviews about them. I do not develop on them. I do not use them for anything - except to amuse myself.
Literally, nothing of value comes from this - which is just as intended. I've even got images of things like Plan 9! I have MINIX, tons of obscure Linux distros, etc...
I have absolutely no good reason for this, except to say that I enjoy it. If you check my headers, sometimes you'll see me tooling around the site with various OSes - this is how and this is why.
I don't have a VM running right now, but I've been using GhostBSD a bit lately.
Nope... Not even a little productive. I just like to play with different OSes. I don't even particularly know what I'm doing - and consider reading the manual to be cheating.
This amuses me!
I'd probably enjoy doing that more than I care to admit. However I don't have time for it. So I wish you well in your crazy OS adventures. If you find one that is better than unix please let me know.
