If your local NTP master is actually connected to the Internet, then you can use one of the public open servers as your master. See http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/servers.htm
If you don't have continual Internet access, you set give your local master's NTP stratum with the lines server 127.127.1.0 # local clock fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 You can add some real NTP servers in there, too -- whenever you are connected to the Internet, your local master should be able to sync to public servers. The local NTP slaves can do something similar, but use a higher stratum number (e.g., stratum >= 12). So they will follow the local master's clock.
