You can set /sim/time/cur-time-override to override the current time. If you 
do so, you also have to do this continously to keep the time up-to-date. The 
value to feed into this property is the return value of the posix time() 
function. Unfortunately there is no output property for this values.
The other input property for setting time is /sim/time/warp to set the offset 
to the system's clock.
Both are probably not what you want. 
Is time syncing between the machines with ntp an option?
