That should get rid of any jitter at the expense of a second or so of delay. Otherwise put the machines as close together as possible (speed of electrons is about 10cm per nanosecond ;)) and have them be the only two machines on the network, using a crossover cable instead of a switch/router. Also disable background network processes like file sharing and NTP. Martin
