Hi, Daniel, It must be periodic(8), but I have trouble identifying what exactly could be the trigger. If I look at /etc/defaults/periodic.conf, it has daily_clean_disks_enable="NO". With respect to daily checks, I just have the default setup, nothing that I added myself. Are there any other configuration options that I should look at? Thanks, Alexander. --- On Wed, 4/29/09, Daniel C. Dowse <dcdowse@gmx.net> wrote: > From: Daniel C.
