I hope you have seen my earlier posts in this thread. If you are not running the latest kernel (-164), you want to give it a try because it has patches developed by VMWare engineers for RHEL kernels. If you are already running the -164 kernel, you should not be using the clocksource= option as explained in the upstream bugzilla I cited.
I'm a latecomer to this thread, but I went back and read the whole thing, and my WinXP VMWare Server guest is still way off - more than an hour.
I turned off the VMWare time sync, and also used the control panel to turn off its time sync (wasn't working anyway - errors on every effort), installed meinberg's ntp and ntp sync service, and the time is still off by more than an hour.
I'm not sure what more I need to do to get this working right.
I am running the 164 kernel - have been since about five minutes after I installed it....
Suggestions?
