The "stratum 16" would seem to indicate that your NTP server is not
properly syncing with a higher ranking (lower stratum) server. As a

The ntpd process is still responding, which is why bb would pass the
test, but there's still something wrong with the configuration. Start
with checking the NTP communication between your NTP server and the
server it is getting time from.
If you are using authenticated ntp, ntpdate probably won't work without
some additional command-line options, where xntpdc knows about keys more
automatically
