Hi all,
I've enabled accounting recently and have noticed these messages
in the daily(8) email:
Day 1:
Purging accounting records:
mv: /var/account/acct.2: No such file or directory
mv: /var/account/acct.1: No such file or directory
mv: /var/account/acct.0: No such file or directory
Day 2:
Purging accounting records:
mv: /var/account/acct.2: No such file or directory
mv: /var/account/acct.1: No such file or directory
Day 3:
Purging accounting records:
mv: /var/account/acct.2: No such file or directory
These could be silenced by a simply testing if a particular file
exists before trying to rename it.
Regards,
Raf
