hi
while sitting at my computer tonight i noticed a great deal of disk
activity. i found that this process was running:
$ ps -auxwww 1463
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TT STAT STARTED TIME COMMAND
root 1463 4.3 0.1 1876 1404 ?? D 3:01AM 0:07.26 find /usr
-xdev -type f ( -perm -u+x -or -perm -g+x -or -perm -o+x ) ( -perm
-u+s -or -perm -g+s ) -print0
any idea why this is running? is it part of a sanctioned background
process?
thanks!
brad

It's part of the nightly security check. Check out the periodic(8) man
page and the scripts in the subdirectories of /etc/periodic. The command
you had running is in /etc/periodic/security/100.chksetuid.
