Acqusition of time

[Brian Monkman <bmonkman () comcast net>]

Folks - I'm having a discussion with a few people and we have a 
question that we are interested in getting comments from the list on.

Are there any situations where a firewall's acqusition of time 
could/should be from a network time source? Not necessarily a public 
source, it could be an "internal" time source.

If there are situations where this makes sense, should these same 
firewalls have battery backed up clocks on board or would that be 
unnecessary?

Brian
