[Samba] Problems running samba in vmware

[Adam Zimmer]

At the moment I have enabled timeSync with vmware tools.

In the general area of time keeping on the host, I added the following 
settings which avoided errors about the RTC missing interrupts:
host.usefastclock=false
host.cpukHz=2400000
host.useTSC=true
ptsc.useTSC=true

I have two other machines similarly configured (with the exception of 
running other linux applications not samba).

Ntpdate seems to be installed as it is part of the ubuntu-server default 
config. However, my other machines seem to run it ok. If anything they 
fall behind a bit and the vmware sync keeps them up-to-date.
