I don't have any CentOS machines with direct Internet connections but I
compared your config and logs to my internal machines and an external
FC12 box.
Your time resets are wildly fulctuating between +720 min (12 hours) and
-2 seconds over the course of only one hour, according to the log. I
have no way of knowing how much actual time had elapsed but the ntp
daemon decided the step threshold had been exceeded and reset the time
according to its time source.
If you are indeed getting good time from the ntp pool, then either your
local system clock is malfunctioning or the kernel driver is getting bad
clock readings. Even network outages would not produce such a large
range of resets in such a short period.
I'd be interested to see the output of:
ntpq -c pe -c as
You might try commenting out the local clock entries in /etc/ntp.conf
and see if that changes your symptoms.
#server 127.127.1.0 # local clock
#fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
./Cal
