Also you should always use VMware tools to sync your time instead of NTP on VMware virtual machines.
VMWare hypervisor plays games with the clock on purpose and can cause a VM with NTP enabled to behave erratically.

Hello, I just install my SL carbon 6.4 under vmware environment for
kernel study, but found the system time runs much faster than the host.
I want the kernel to be pure, so I do not take account of vmware-tools.
I setup a ntpd in my host windows xp, but when guest SL update the time,
it complains like this:
[user@workstation ~]$ sudo ntpdate -dv 192.168.17.1

I am wired, and do not know how to handle it.
Anyone anyidea would be much much appreciated!!!
