Does anybody really know what time it is...

I have some code that uses MacTCP to get the time (seconds
since midnight 1-1-1900 GMT) from any unix machine on the network that
implements RFC 868  and then  set my Mac clock accordingly.
(after calculations of daylight savings time and stuff like that)

Is there any machines on the network with the correct time? (i.e. time
server). It doesn't have to be totally accurate +/- a couple of seconds
is ok. (if I was interested in accurate time the I would implement NTP :-))

Thanks for any info that you might have.
