It might be useful to know exactly what hardware is in use.  Some of the 
  fancier clocks have provision for GPS input.  I believe that both 
Meinberg and Symmetricomm offer such.  I believe that both companies 
offer driver software for these clocks allowing you to read and set them 
and, perhaps, offering other functions as well.
