When a machine is badly out of sync, it indicates this by setting it's stratum
to an unbelievable level, so other NTP servers avoid depending on it until some
time has passed and the server's time remains stable for a reasonable time 
period.

This appears to be what is happening with the .DROP. and .STEP. refid's you've
shown.  Be patient, NTPD ought to sync up given a few hours...
