Use NTP and pool.ntp.org:

For Feisty:

 - Right click on the dates time icon on the Gome task bar
 - Select Adjust Date & Time
 - Select Servers
 - Add <servername> click 'Add' then check the server box.
[you can do this for multiple servers, so if one is down it will check
the next]

If, for example you are in the UK; in the clock server settings just add
one or more of the following:

   0.uk.pool.ntp.org
   1.uk.pool.ntp.org
   2.uk.pool.ntp.org
   3.uk.pool.ntp.org
