I am having a nagging problem with the TKL-Wordpress appliance.  I downloaded the latest version and installed it on my VMware ESXi 5.1.0 server.  There were a few steps that I had to go through, but I got it running without much difficulty.  Networking was the biggest hitch, and I ended up deleting the NIC and recreating it, which seemed to solve the issue I was having.  The server is now accessible externally (off the local network), and all the features (Wordpress, Webmin, phpAdmin, Shell, etc.) work as expected.

However, after some period of time (usually <10 minutes), the web server stops responding.  I can ping the server externally, and Apache is still running, but cannot be accessed from a web browser.  If I ping from the server console to an external site, after a brief but noticeable pause, pings respond.  After this action I can once again access the web server externally for another 10 or 15 minutes until I have to start the process all over again.

I have checked and re-checked the VM ware config, looked at the /etc/network/interfaces file (which had an extra entry from the original NIC I deleted), and looked in the logs, but I don't see any errors that point to what the problem might be.

Does anyone have any ideas?  Thanks in advance.
