Yes, I've looked at that but it's not clear to me.

# Allow NTP client access from local network.
#allow 192.168/16

Will uncommenting this allow the server to find a time sync signal on 
the LAN? Even the router keeps time so it seems there should be a way 
other than keeping the server connected to the internet for time alone? 
It seems I should be able to tell it to get it's time from 192.168.1.1 
[the router].
