VMware time sync issues ntpd or not?

Written by Peter Davies on .

Damn time sync on VMware has been a right pain - servers would increase their running time every few days by several minutes - very annoying for time-based execution of scripts.

In summary I just ran ntpd :- primarily from: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Time_Synchronization

emerge -p openntpd
/etc/init.d/ntpd start
rc-update add ntpd default

Job done.
