[newbie] root email spam

2002-01-08 Thread Bryan B Whitehead

I'm am really really really sick of all the email that is generated every
night and mailed to root.

When programs are doing it? I tracked some down too logcheck... but whatr
about the rest?

Can someome please tell me what is generating all these security reports
and emailing them to root every night? And how I can turn them off? :)

Thanks in advance.

Take a look in /etc/cron.daily -- that is everything that is being run on a
daily basis, and probably the source of virtually every e-mail you're getting.
