Just like the song says, the time on my SLES 11 server "keeps on
slippin slippin slippin... into the future..."

The vmware-guestd are started at boot and are running.

The following modules are loaded:

# lsmod |grep vm
vmsync                  5440  0
vmmemctl               10188  0
vmblock                15124  1

Yet clocks keeps skewing forward at a rapid pace.

This VM is used for monitoring so the usual trick of putting ntpdate
in a cron is not a good solution since it throws all the graphs off
and causes false alerts and regular ntp is frustratingly stubborn
about refusing to correct large clock skew.

I can't seem to find any documentation on how these tools work or how
to configure them to keep time synced with the host.

Any help would be appreciated.
