Problem with running VM with date one month previous
Posted: 29. Apr 2016, 18:04
I'm trying to run a CentOS guest with the system date set back to about a month before the current date.
I have set the system date back to the date I need and disabled time synchronisation with the following command:
VBoxManage setextradata "VM name" "VBoxInternal/Devices/VMMDev/0/Config/GetHostTimeDisabled" 1
Everything seems to work fine for a while (perhaps 10 minutes) and then the network fails. I'm using Host-only networking.
Is there something else I should be doing or is there some reason why a host-only network wouldn't work if the date is way off?
