I pick a host on my lan (VMware server or IPCop) to be my ntp server, 
then use a near-by ntp servers to sync with. Your lan's dhcp server 
(IPCop) can then hand out your lan's ntp server address to your dhcp 
clients.

server dewey.lib.ci.phoenix.az.us
server ntp.drydog.com
are both in the vicinity, and I haven't had any problem with either of 
them in the many years I've used them.
