David suggested that I check the service is running in the guest. Having just installed them, surely they should be running by default, shouldn't they? Note that I haven't reinstalled the ntp client on the guest machines, they're still as installed. If I run the VBoxService command I get this error which explains the cause of the problem :- /usr/bin/VBoxService -f VBoxService 4.2.12_OSE r84980 (verbosity: 0) linux.x86 (Dec 10 2014 20:45:30) release log 00:00:00.000146 main Log opened 2015-01-06T16:49:56.390798000Z 00:00:00.000299 main OS Product: Linux 00:00:00.000350 main OS Release: 3.6.11-10.1.7.jolla 00:00:00.000391 main OS Version: #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Dec 10 19:12:11 UTC 2014 00:00:00.000421 main OS Service Pack: #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Dec 10 19:12:11 UTC 2014 00:00:00.000450 main Executable: /usr/bin/VBoxService 00:00:00.000452 main Process ID: 984 00:00:00.000452 main Package type: LINUX_32BITS_GENERIC (OSE) 00:00:00.003991 main 4.2.12_OSE r84980 started.

So rather than me tinkering and *possibly* managing to fix this thing, what is the *correct* way to do it? _______________________________________________ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list To unsubscribe, please send a mail to devel-unsubscr...@lists.sailfishos.org
