Hi
How can I disable those nightly/monthly/... periodic scripts? I don't need
them, these days professional monitoring software such as nagios is used to
monitor 200+ systems. I can't read 200 mails showing me hundreds of lines
of output even if nothings happening. Am I just deleting all the
/etc/periodic/* stuff or is there a switch like:
turn_off_ancient_system_administration="YES" ?
Tnx.
If you really want to disable cron, put
cron_enable="NO"
in /etc/rc.conf
Or, the OP can just comment the periodic lines within:
/etc/crontab
That way other cron jobs will still run.
