We are running a Zimbra Mail Server on FreebSD + VirtualBox.

I have seen timekeeping issues with various virtualization solutions
over the years, including VMWare ESXi and ESX. I tried NTP inside the
VMs as well as some tricks to enhance the syncing with the host - all
with mixed success.

One of the reasons I love jails;-)

Sorry, it does not help to solve the specific problem but I thought I
add my usage example - it is not all Windows..
