What is the best way to get all servers clock insync

I manage 3 locations and all the servers have different clock times.  It's most annoying when a user logs on to Citrix and their computer clock is 3 minutes different than the Citrix server.  I'm using the net time  /setsntp:servername command but there's got to be a better way to this so they are all insync.
All locations have a 2008 DC

Can you clarify your example with exactly what I would use?  I'm guessing somewhere in the command should be our domain name?  laspca.corp
I obviously don't want to have to do this to every server and workstation.  If there a GPO?
I like to use a GPO with a WMI filter to set the PDCe to use an external NTP, and let the domain hierarchy do the rest.

It's easy to configure, no extra work if you move the PDCe role to another DC, and it don't tattoo the registry.
