Time Sync issue on RHEL 5.3

Linux and Unix-Like Red Hat
1

Hi,

My Linux VMs are running on citrix XEN.Somehow the time drift is too high (going very fast). Even if the correct time configured using date -s command, for every 1 hr it is differing almost 5 - 10 mins.
Tried configuring ntpd (local NTP server) and still it is not synchronized.

Machine configuration:
OS: RHEL 5.3
Kernal: 2.6.18-128.el5
VM Product: XEN (Citrix)

someone please help me to fix this issue.
