Harlan, really. You *cannot* have two different mechanisms/applications 
to discipline the clock at the same time. I invite you to try. You have 
access to my code so you can test this easily.

I don't see the benefit of doing this with two separate instances. It's 
easier and simpler to just add the other servers into the one instance
