How much drift? The guest "hardware" clock generally won't be stable enough for NTP to keep things in sync (it might look like it's OK for a bit, but it won't be).

You might be able to use the Linux vmware-guestd tool (I haven't tried on OpenBSD), which will sync the time to the host hardware if you ask it (but you need X11 to config that, from memory).

I once had a GSX setup where guest hardware clocks typically ran at 1/3 - 1/10th of realtime, and sped up when the guest OS was eating lots of CPU, but that doesn't sound like what you have...
