I can't believe others did not point out the standard for doing this (SNTP -
RFC 868)
Either run a third party SNTP app that keeps all of you machines (including
your server if it has a net connection) synch'd or drop in a SNTP component
to your app.
See something like: http://www.mhn.org/~graham/nettime.html
