[uml-user] do UML guests need NTP?

Hello,

is NTP needed on UML VMs?

Or does the UML kernel take the time from the host kernel? (so it's
enough if the host runs NTP)

Thanks,
Riccardo

UML takes the timer tick from the host.
But it has it's own timekeeping.

But I have never used/needed NTP within UML.
