The server is 240ppm low in frequency, and keeps stepping.

Take a look at your drift file, delete it, and restart ntpd. My guess is
that it contains a rather big value.

I have seen ntpd* somehow come up with a wildly wrong drift value, and
then get into a pattern where the repeated steps keeps it from recovering.

This plot is your server seen from mine**, at 17 second intervals. The
red is Tyours-Tmine, the green is the same data, but with a 240ppm ramp
added. I'll keep collecting data for a few more hours and then stop.
