I need some help with ntpd.  Here is my network:

Firewall -+ Internal network, subnet A
          | 
          |                     +- Isolated subnet B
          + Triple homed server -
                                +- Isolated subnet C


I'd like the firewall (which is dual homed) to synchronize its time with 
the outside world.  The internal network would then sync with the Firewall
(would all machines on subnet A use the broadcastclient option?).  Somewhere 
on this internal network lives a triple homed server that has 2 different 
isolated test networks attached to it.  I'd like these two subnets (B and C) 
to get their time information from the triple homed server.
Note: subnets B and C have no access to subnet A.

What's the best way to do this?  I've tried to make the firewall broadcast
on subnet A and the Triple homed server broadcast to B and C, but no one
seems to be getting any time updates.  The firewall is syncing correctly,
however.

Can someone help me out?

Thanks!
