you also need a "server TIME-SOURCE-ADDRESS"
or some way to get the correct time INTO your XNTPD,
try to find a source close to you network wise,
like a router of your upstream provider...

do an "ntptrace localhost" on your linux system,
(yours will probably show you "stratum 16")

>                synch distance 0.00049, refid 'MC02'

the last line is the important one, showing the original clocksource ID
