Hi

There is an option if we have vmware tools installed, but that does not work
because I have already enabled the synchronization option. And still time
get out of synch

The ntp server must be my host OS since I am not connected to internet....

Guess I will do that, set up ntp in host OS and run ntpupdate every minute
:-S
