However, under vmware, the clock seems to drift a lot. The purpose of the ntpd daemon is to poll the time servers and adjust the clock accordingly. For example, you are free to use whatever scripts I wrote and integrate them into an existing linux/unix box. I do not provide support for this appliance and wish you luck in any modifications you make to the appliance. However, all that really needs to be done is to recompile a linux kernel specifically for the ESX virtual hardware and replace the one that boots in the ide configured virtual machine. I lost all my development work for my challenge entry due to a hard disk failure. If an option exists in the vmware software for time synchronization between the host and guest machine, you may want to disable that function. I thoroughly tested obtaining correct time with all time zones before I published my entry into the contest. Thus, this appliance was specifically tailored for them and not for ESX server. The only virtualization software available \*for* the Challenge was Workstation and GSX/Server. Unfortunately, this appliance was published for the Summer 2006 VMware Challenge. Thank you for using my virtual appliance.
