What do Federal folks use for time service? Do you keep the
time.apple.com default, or do you use your own servers? Are your NTP
servers public facing or internal only?
Many (most) DoD networks have stratum 1 servers (using GPS sources)
connected to a Cisco router somewhere internal.
I'm well set on internal servers, but hate to leave my roaming users
without reliable time service.
I wouldn't worry. Clock skew is usually pretty minimal over weeks or
months, so unless they're permanently disconnected it's not a problem.
If you support VPNs they'll resync clocks when the VPN is up.
