I however, cannot find any references to snort in syslog or messages (which has just has a bunch of -- MARK -- messages in it) Karl, I checked your suggestion and there is one entry in the syslog at 06:25:01 (2secs before the email) which runs anacron <log> Feb 7 06:25:01 ganesh /USR/SBIN/CRON[10426]: (root) CMD (test -e /usr/sbin/anacron || run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily) </log> this same line is there each day. But, dpkg -l anacron gives me pn anacron <none> (no description available) and there is no anacron in /usr/sbin Any ideas ? TIA, Regards, Shri PS - Does CRON not always put some headers into the email which is *not* present in these ones.
