I'm sure there are appropriate commands to turn off the VM from the console, but you might not need to go that way. Try browsing to the ESX host (by ip, if necessary) and logging in to "VMware Virtual Infrastructure Web Access".

No snapshot. At least, I didn't tell it to take a snapshot, and there's nothing that schedules snapshots. I'm not trying to shut down the ESX server, just one of the VMs. I can SSH directly to that ESX server, but what would I do once I got there? ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
