Hi Lowell, I'm disappointed to hear that I must be so blind that I don't see it, but I'm happy to hear that it is clearly listed in your "man periodic.conf"! Would you mind copying/pasting the relevant variable to disable the daily check for vulnerable packages? I have put 15 minutes into finding this so please don't think I'm a lazy slob... blind/stupid maybe but not lazy. Thank you, Chris
