Migrating the VM from VMware Workstation to my ESXi hosts has it stable for now. I'm going to go through and see what settings may be causing this issue.

I did a fresh Debian 9 install in VMware workstation on my local machine and it's working. So there's something about my ESXi hosting that is causing this issue.

Looking for advice on where to start troubleshooting this.
Issue: I compiled and installed 3.3.5 on two separate linux virtual machines. I can start the authserv and worldserver and everything is fine. When I go to login and create a character, the entire virtual machine locks up and crashes and requires a manual restart via ESXi. Upon coming back, there are no logs written for any the Trinity logs and the system logs do not show anything as well. Based on this, I think I"m running into kernel panic. I copied my Windows WOW client folders onto the VM and ran the various extractors out and installed in the proper position.
Servers:
Debian 9 Testing - 4 cores, 4 GB RAM, 80 GB thin provisioned disk.
Ubuntu 17.10.1 - 4 cores, 4 GB RAM, 80 GB thin provisioned disk.Looking for tips and advice on how to determine what is causing the issue. My next step I'm going to take is to download a different 3.3.5 wow client and extract out the maps from that to see if it makes a difference. That being said, I'm not hopeful given how the whole system gets FUBAR'd when trying to login.
Thanks,
Z

I think it has to do with the network adapter.
I changed it from VMXNET3 to E1000E and my server is now stable. Previously I couldn't even get logged in without it completely locking up.
I have open-vm-tools installed on the virtual machines, so support for a VMXNET3 adapter should work -- but evidence suggests that something with it is causing an issue. It shouldn't be a problem given that I am not using 10 GbE, but I believe support for anything over 1Gbps requires VMXNET3.
