I am seeing the following errors in the Tor log: [...] Feb 28 04:54:43.008 [notice] Your system clock just jumped 4398 seconds backward; assuming established circuits no longer work.

Tor version: Tor v0.2.0.20-rc (r13715) Standard Debian package Guest OS: Debian etch Kernel 2.6.22-4-amd64 Host OS: VMware ESX 3.5 VMware Tools installed NTP: ntp is installed on the guest. ntpq -p shows a solid lock. Details: I recognize that there have been long-standing issues with system time on VMware Workstation. Though I don't believe this is the case on ESX, certainly not with VMware Tools installed. I ran another Tor test server on this very same ESX host (though different VM) for a couple of weeks earlier this year without issues. Does anybody here have a suggestion how to determine root cause? Thanks, --Lucky Green
