you can setup what's referred to as a "Undisciplined Local Clock"; like most things, it's a tad tricky, until you understand the entire setup. however, it's highly recommended to use 3 peer servers, not just one; I wouldn't use a solaris system, in this setup, as they freq's wander more than some others.
This is ok, if you just want all systems to have the "same" time, not necessarily the most accurate time.

NAME

       setup - graphical setup program for the esp package manager

SYNOPSIS

       setup [ directory ]

DESCRIPTION

       setup  provides  a graphical installation interface for EPM-generated portable installation packages. It presents a step-by-step dialog for
       collecting a list of packages to install and accepting any license agreements for those packages.

       setup searches for products in the current directory or the directory specified on the command-line.

INSTALLATION TYPES

       The default type of installation is "custom". That is, users will be able to select from the list of products and install them.

       setup also supports other types of installations. The setup.types file, if present, defines the other installation types.
