Certainly I run ntpd on all my KVM-based virtual machines, since KVM 
provides each guest with a virtualized hardware clock. With Xen, this
can also be done if using a Xen-enabled kernel in the guest, using the Xen 
independent wallclock. Otherwise you usually have to run ntpdate 
periodically through cron.
