Is this an attack on my machine? How can you know for sure?

[Kerry Hoath]

The mark messages occurr every 15 or 30 or 45 or 60 minutes or
whenever you set them. They are used to show that syslog is still
running and working; especially useful for network syslogs if you don't get a mark
message from a remote host it might be unreachable.

Regards, Kerry.
