If "internal" means a local NTP server independent of external network
resources, the other responses are apposite.

If "internal" means a stratum 2 NTP server dependent upon other servers on
the network, and if you don't need accuracy in single-digit millisecond or
better range, we've done well with an older ex-Windows machine that now
runs FreeBSD and vanilla NTPD, and is now a pool server at ntp.org.  ± six
milliseconds, cost approaches the cube root of zero.
