I have a FreeBSD 6.0 server that the periodic processes don't seem to complete and build up until our monitor complains about the number of processes and I killall. How would I go about figuring out which process is the problem or if there is a cron issue? Can't find any errors in the messages or cron log. After a few days, this is what I see and have to kill: 26347 ?? Is 0:00.01 /bin/sh -c periodic daily 26349 ?? I 0:00.01 /bin/sh - /usr/sbin/periodic daily 26355 ??
