Hi all,

I have to set up a virtual network environment, with +/- 15 virtual 
hosts and synchronize some of those virtual machines with ptp (precision 
time protocol). PTP was developed to provide very precise time 
coordination of LAN connected computers. The aim is to be a lot more 
precise than NTP, with a few milliseconds gap between synchronized 
machines.

I have downloaded and installed ptpd [1] on each virtual machines but it 
does not seem to work.

I use Debian testing on the host, kvm --version output is
QEMU PC emulator version 0.12.5 (qemu-kvm-0.12.5)

Each virtual machine runs CentOS 5.5.

Do you know if there is some issues in the configuration, or between kvm 
and ptp ?

Regards,

Antoine
