Maybe I'm missing a detail in what I got from the docs on ntpd.  As I
understood using ntpd wasn't an option if you were going to rely on an
internal system for your trusted clock to sync too.  Can ntpd be used
when your simply going to us the CMOS clock off 1 of your systems as
your network clock?
