Forgot to mention, the periodic process is controlled by by cron(8), type "man cron" for more information on how cron works and can be configured. You can view the process by looking at /etc/crontab, for example: # do daily/weekly/monthly maintenance 1 3 * * * root periodic daily 30 3 * * 6 root periodic weekly 30 5 1 * * root periodic monthly however, you shouldn't edit this file, but rather redirect all mail for root@yourhost.com to useraccount@yourhost.com (or elsewhere) using your mailing system (for example, I use qmail, so I have all mail destined for root/postmaster sent to my user account instead where I normally read email) Chris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
