understand the logs
I took a look at /var/log/messages and this entry is repeating just
about every second for the last day and a half and finally stopped about
an hour ago.
I have no idea what I'm looking at. I've searched around google a bit
but nothing seem to explain what is going on.
Any help in diagnosing the cause of this would be appreciated.
