Ever since upgrading to VMWare Worksation 12 (12.0.0, 12.0.1 and 12.1.0), I haven't been able to use 'vmrun' to work with my Shared virtual machines. This had been working since (at least WS8) and up to (and including) VMWare Workstation 11.1.2.

Thus, a few months ago, I started writing a small tool to help display relevant information in a more compact way. I named this tool 'lseth' and its python rewrite will become 'lsnet'. It can display Linux bonds, the active interface and the current MAC of the bond. Here's what it does: On a RHEL7.1 system with OSP7, instead of this: # ip a s   1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN       link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00       inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo          valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever       inet6 ::1/128 scope host   ...
