An Open Letter to iago

[rabbit]

Dr iago,
The forum time tells me it's 3:57 pm my time, when in fact it is 3:05 pm my time.  What gives?

Signed,
rabbit + anyone else with a similar problem

VMWare tends to drift, and for some reason my ntp cronjob doesn't work so the time gets fixed when I do a ntp sync manually.

PS,

Now it's an hour ahead instead of only 52 minutes.  While this solves one part of my OCD, it does not solve the other.

Regards,
rabbit

That can be fixed in your profile.

What version of VMWare are you using? There are some known host-guest clock synchronization issues versions based on ESX3.5.
