Does the server keep accurate time? We have vwmare ESX servers (not sure
what version), but running RHEL3 and 4 as guests, neither of them can
keep anything close to accurate time. We first noticed this when one
server was almost 12 hours out of sync! A simple test found that the
servers started to lose time within the hour.
