IIRC, the solution given in that thread was 'Don't use VMware'.

I run three different Ubuntu servers (Nagios, MRTG, and NeDi) on VMware, and have no issues whatsoever with time (or anything else). I don't recall how I originally setup NTP, and I DID have issues in the beginning, but they have long since been resolved. If you run into time issues and have specific questions, email the list and I'll do my best to get back to you with info about how my system is setup.

The only current problem that I have with VMware is that sometimes my virtual host's filesystem will get kicked into read-only mode. This issue only relates to servers attached to an iSCSI SAN, and has already been fixed for RHEL and SUSE. I have a ticket open with them now to address the issue with Ubuntu.

Thanks,
Garry
