As an example, I am synching my NTP server to three different sources,  
each a different distance away in terms of ping times, and NTP is doing  
all the fancy stuff that Chris talked about to create a solution, some  
of which you can see here (if it copies and pastes ok):

ntpq> pe
      remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset   
jitter

  3.334
*nss.nts.umn.edu 160.94.54.248    2 u  929 1024  377   23.730   -4.168

41.659

I then synch all my machines to my local master using the same  
technology.

Nice stuff.
