[Lxc-users] reading hwclock from container

I am trying to avoid having to install NTP in every container, so I
came up with following idea.

Main server cron job

        * 0 *  * * /sbin/hwclock -w

Each container has following cron job

        10 0 *  * * /sbin/hwclock -s

However, the container can't access /dev/rtc and I am guessing that
has something to do with my cgroup config line:

       lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = c 254:0 rwm # rtc

Anyway I can fix this? Or get the same result some other way?
