Well, for a time server on a general Unix host you configure
at least one server entry, so _your_ server can synchronize
with a qualified time source (e.g. pool.ntp.org or ntp[12].ptb.de)
and additionally you configure appropriate restrictions so
your clients can then sync with your server. Unless you have
a DCF77 receiver or similar connected to the system.

The "magic" that is necessary on the G2 is due to making
the "time" cross burb boundaries.
