Hi people,
for a while now, my root mailbox has been flooded with the following
message. Well.... not actually flooded, but the message is generated every
day.
I have examined /etc/cron.daily/ and I have four files: logrotate,
tetex.cron, tmpwatch (not executable) and updatedb.cron (See below).
/etc/crontab is also listed below.
I am currently running RHL5.1, with a 2.2.5 kernel and samba 2.0.3
I have been unable to find anything which might cause this message to be
send every night at 4:02. Of course, nothing noticably happens except for
the message which is getting a tad irritating.
/usr/bin/testparm does not yield any obvious problems either.
If anyone has any suggestions to what may be wrong, please respond. If you
want more information (e.g. /etc/smb.conf or something, please ask).
Regards,
Alex van Luijpen
