short version: rtfm

long version: tFm you need to r is 'man syslogd'

and the 'see also' items at the end:
	SEE ALSO
		syslog.conf(5), klogd(8), logger(1), syslog(2),
		syslog(3), services(5), savelog(8)

when your system connipts, aneurism style, how can you
know when it was last healthy? (you'll get it back up
to running status eventually, of course.)

--mark-- & friends just lets you know when last the system
was alive, if ever it does die.
