<para>The <filename>sysklogd</filename> script invokes the
<userinput>syslogd</userinput> program with the <emphasis>-m 0</emphasis>
option. This option turns off the periodic timestamp mark that syslogd
writes to the log files every 20 minutes by default. If you want to turn
on this periodic timestamp mark, edit the <filename>sysklogd</filename>
script and make the changes accordingly. See <userinput>man
syslogd</userinput> for more information.</para>
