I have had similar issues on a laptop, without vmware - if I disconnect 
the network, I have to wait for the maximum delay to log in, despite 
having configured off-line mode.

I think I have 1.2-rc6 GUI client installed - this appears to be the 
latest version - is there anyway I can confirm the version of the 
installed version of wpkg? Help-->about says 1.0.6 which doesn't seem to 
match the version I just installed.

Thanks.
