Description Pawel Sedrowski 2013-08-22 08:22:12 UTC
When I try to "Enable virtual machine sharing and remote access" in Vmware Workstation the box unchecks after a second and nothing happens. I log files I find:

/var/log/messages:

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run Vmware Workstation 9.0.2.1031769-r1
2. Go to: Edit-> Preferences -> Shared VMs
3. Check: "Enable virtual machine sharing and remote access"
Actual Results:  
Box checked for a second, "Starting Workstation Server" appeared for the same time and then nothing.

Expected Results:  
Workstation Server starts and VM sharing is possible.

Do you still have this problem?
If yes, what's your current version of Workstation and libc?
