Hi,
I'm seeing an odd TCP/IP problem running under Windows under VMWare. The programs that are having the problem are built with VAST 5.5.2 and Totally Objects SocketSet. It is possible that this is my bug but at this point I don't think so. The programs run on many other machines that are not under VMWare and all work fine.
The problem most often occurs between a GUI program that connects to an NT service. The GUI connects to the service and sends it short messages and the service does small jobs and sends replies. This works great everywhere but under VMWare. Under VMWare, it works for a while and then the connection times out. Sometime the server times out and sometimes the GUI times out. Both these programs are using very little CPU time. An action in the GUI will work and then the same action will get no response and time out.
If anyone has any idea at all as to what is going on here, I would love to hear it.
Lou
