I had an issue running ntp on at least one linux guest. The drift was so bad that ntp would give up and quit.
I run ntpdate every 5-10 minutes depending on how critical the guest is. -----Original Message----- From: David Boyes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, May 12, 2005 4:11 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Time setting Run ntp-server on one of the Debian guests, and configure the clients to use that server as a NTP source either by running ntp-server on them, or periodically using ntpdate to update the PC clocks. It will cause some overhead for the NTP server because it will wake up more frequently than it normally would, but you get very precise clock sync. > I have several Debian guests running on VM.
