The bug makes vmtoolsd (vmware-guestd) crash whenever credentials are being passed to some commands from the host. This produces a state where the host system only logs (after some time waiting for the command response): "I125: GuestRpcSendTimedOut: message to toolbox timed out." "I125: GuestRpcSendTimedOut: message to toolbox timed out." "I125: GuestRpcSendTimedOut: message to toolbox timed out." ...=20 Details in "Calling createTempfileInGuest twice crashes vmtoolsd (FreeBSD)" https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools/issues/236 The fix is in pull request https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools/pull/238= in three files (https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools/pull/238/files) Until it's committed and a new version released, it might be useful to add a few files in the port (as I said, this is a serious bug) and this is distributed in the official VMware vagrant images for FreeBSD, making them useless for provisioning. Please, if you have the chance, by all means add the patch to the port. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
