I get these in my cron logs, caused by diffmon:
cat: /etc/krb.conf: No such file or directory cat: /etc/krb5.conf: No such file or directory cat: /root/.k5login: No such file or directory cat: /usr/local/etc/proftpd.conf: No such file or directory cat: /home/diffmon/diffmon: No such file or directory cat: /home/diffmon/diffmon.cf: No such file or directory cat: /home/diffmon/diffmon-web.cf: No such file or directory cat: /home/diffmon/diffmon-web.sed: No such file or directory cat: /home/www/README*: No such file or directory cat: /home/www/GNU.web-folk.html: No such file or directory cat: /home/www/bin/make.html.TAGS: No such file or directory cat: /home/www/bin/new-software.sh: No such file or directory cat: /home/www/bin/nightly: No such file or directory cat: /home/www/bin/nightly-diffmon: No such file or directory cat: /home/www/bin/nightly-vars: No such file or directory cat: /home/www/bin/web-backup: No such file or directory cat: /home/www/html/TAGS.unknown-lang: No such file or directory cat: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/not-found.pl: No such file or directory cat: /home/ftp/md5sums.txt: No such file or directory They come from entries in /etc/diffmon/diffmon.cf that is placed by installing the diffmon package. The lines in the config file should be removed entirely, commented out, or perhaps some mechanism can be used that checks _at_install_time_ whether these files exist. The only ones that look as if they might be generally useful are the krb ones and perhaps the proftpd.conf (although I'm not sure that's where Debian would put the proftpd config file). The diffmon.cfg actually says "# diffmon configuration file for gnudist.gnu.org". I'm not quite sure why a particular machine's config needs to be in a generic distribution. Regards, Nicolai Czempin
