Hi,
When nothing write logs, syslog automatically write periodically a MARK in
the logs.
You can find this in the syslog man :
-m interval
The syslogd logs a mark timestamp regularly. The default inter-
val between two -- MARK -- lines is 20 minutes. This can be
changed with this option. Setting the interval to zero turns it
off entirely.
It can help you to know when a system crashed.
Have a nice day
Fanfan
