Subject: Can I turn an 11/03 into a fuzzball?

    I've got an old 11/03 sitting here and must use it for something
or pitch it.  Somewhere I read that fuzzballs are 11/03 based.  (First
of all, is this correct?)  I was wondering what it would take to turn
it into a time server.

    I assume that I will need the following:

1.  An ethernet card.
2.  Stable clock source.
3.  Radio clock.
4.  Software.

    This has got to be a low budget project.  I probably won't get much
support from the university or my department.  I can easily come up with
an OXCO for #2, and probably put together a WWVB receiver for #3.  The
ethernet interface must be purchased (anyone have any leads?).  Which
leaves #4.  I'm at a total loss here.  Where does one get the software?

    Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated.
