RH 9 and Network Time Protocol

I have a small program written in C using winsock v1, that uses a unix host to get the time.

I have two machines networked, one windows, the other red hat 9.
The windows machine will request the time off the RH one.

How can I configure red hat to reply to the time request, i.e act as an NTP server on its own. Both machines are totally kept off the internet(security reasons).
I don't really know much about this kind of thing so any help is greatly appreciated.

well youll have to install an ntp server on the redhat machine. check redhats package manager, you may already have an ntp server on disk or from online. otherwise search online for one to download and install.
