We need more information.

What version of Splunk is the forwarder?  Is it a Universal Forwarder or Heavy Forwarder?

What version of Splunk is the Deployment Server?  (FTR, the DS does not push configurations - forwarders pull them from the DS.)

What error messages are in the forwarder's splunkd.log file?
