If I understand what you want correctly ntp will do what you want.  We
have a small network in which one machine is using ntp to sync itself up
with a time server on the internet.  All the other machines are running
ntp to sync themselves up with the one machine that is syncing up with
the time server on the internet.  Basicly one machine is serving the
time to all the other machines on our network, which I believe is what
you want to do.
