Not true.  :-)

I ported the XNTP clock synch package to MPE:

While the xntpd continuous synchronization daemon is broken to due a slight
sub-second math error bug in the MPE :SETCLOCK adjustment code, you could
certainly execute ntpdate on a daily (or hourly?) basis to change your 3000's
clock to match your 9000s.
