[ale] VMWare Server and time

[jlightner at water.com (Lightner, Jeff)]

And what did "date" show at same time?

e.g. Run "hwclock;date" to see what time the two commands give you.
They shouldn't be off by much.

Of course others have written with more specific vmware information so
that might be better to look at.  I don't play much with vmware here.
