Without further details I feel compelled to ask: are you sure you need it? I remember one case where a client wanted synchronized times for some software and he ran into tons of trust-related issues, even with NTP. The solution to this problem was simple - just let the server track all the times based on when it receives an event. Then you don't need any complex synchronization across the network.
Everyone else gave you the common answer so I just wanted to make sure you weren't overthinking it and trusting client machines too much (especially when there is money involved - imagine if someone realized they could manipulate value by simply changing their system clock).
