It says 'periodic runs the executable scripts and files in the specified directory.' The default directory is /etc/periodic. I have cron jobs setup to run between Monday and Saturday but not Sunday. This periodic command runs my scripts every day although I didn't put my scripts anywhere in /etc/periodic/ I want to disable those lines, but not sure if this leads to some problems.
