One of our Linux hosts running a Splunk 6.x forwarder is getting an excessive number of messages in splunkd.log:

ntp does appear to be running and the clock time looks ok when spot checking. Was wondering what that Splunk forwarder warning means? Does it thinks the system clock time is changing/bouncing around a lot and/or going backwards?
