as i thought!!The only solution I have found to work is to stop NTP on the guest and
you're going to need to do some research, because i can't recall where the
info is for your issue.
rhel/vmware is known to cause timing issues with the rhel guest os.
search google for things like: vmware linux timing sync (etc..)
as i recall, there are a few parameters you can set within the vmware app
for the guest os, in order to sync the timing, and to stop the skew from
occuring...
i think you might also have to modify the kernel startup attributes.
simply run ntpdate (getting the time from other reliable server) every
hour or so via cron. The only 'solution' I have not tried is rebuilding
the kernel. Suggestions like use the PIT time source on the kernel
startup line may well improve the timekeeping, but it still loses time.
