Re: [Xen-users] Time diferrence between dom0 and domU

[Matthieu Patou <mat+Informatique.xen@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Jordi,
I noticed the same problem and that's pretty nasty on HVM host running 
windows as the system can't login on domain by defaut due to too big 
time drift.
I worked around by adding ~ 6 minutes to the time of the domU at startup.
