The clock will be off by the calculated amount, but it will be stable. It
will be consistently off by the same amount.
Suppose server A gets its time from the internet over an asymmetrical link.
Now, suppose that server B out on the internet asks server A for the time.
The errors cancel out and it will get the correct answer.
