[Vserver] Hosts and Guests and NTP; oh my.

I need to provide time services for the local network (less than 50
servers, workstations and Windows boxes) and since that is pretty lite
weight I'm thinking of putting it into the guest that will be handling
DNS queries.

But ... I'm pretty sure a guest normally can't change the system clock
so I plan on having the host run ntpd for setting the "system" time and
the guest provide the service to the network.

Is this a disaster waiting to happen? Are there any other/better ways
to do this?

Thanks,
Rod
