Hmm, I forgot to respond to this :)

I believe it's working for you, cause you last set dom0 to use it's  
own clock, instead of xen, so now dom0's clock is getting synced via  
ntp.

BUT the ALL of your domU's now, have no time sync. If your clock in  
your computer is good, then all is fine (except the long and longer it  
goes without a sync).

So basically what you did was just disable ntp for everything but dom0.

If you want to email a list that normally no traffic, but many people  
willing to help with ntp, try timekeepers at fortytwo.ch (not sure if you  
have to subscribe to send emails)
