Hi folks
I have a Centos 5.3. I'm wondering how can I make this linux box to act as a time server for my small network. I just need this Centos PC act as a time reference for the other PCs so they can keep the time exact the same as the Centos server. Don;t need to syncronize the server with tyhe internet, just keep my local network with the same time in all the PC.
Thanks in advance
David
