if it's /etc/cron.daily/find causing this and not dlocate's cron job then i have two suggestions: 1. the quick hack: edit /etc/cron.daily/find and add this line: exit 0 immediately after this line: [ -e /usr/bin/updatedb.findutils ] || exit 0 2. the proper fix: file a wishlist bug report against findutils asking for an /etc/default/findutils that allows you to choose whether updatedb is run or not. craig -- craig sanders <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
