I'm running VmWare Workstation on two centos 4.4 machines (one, at home,
an Athlon 32bit where Centos 4.4 was an upgrade from earlier version 
running VmWare 5.5.1, and one at work which is a P4 2.26ghz HP Proliant
DL320-G2 server, VmWare 5.5.2).

But I don't know what this "clock problem" is that's mentioned here.
Can someone enlighten me, and perhaps even describe what one does to
cure it?

Thanks!
