I just wanted to double check with others before I start trying to
source my problem. I have two RAQ2's that generate error emails once a
day. Not really a problem - I'm just a perfectionist. I tired combing
the cobalt lists but came up with nothing.
 
Subj: Cron <root at ns1> run-parts /etc/cron.daily
Body:
error: apache:2 unknown option 'missingok' -- ignoring line
error: apache:9 unknown option 'missingok' -- ignoring line
error: apache:16 unknown option 'missingok' -- ignoring line
error: apache:23 unknown option 'missingok' -- ignoring line
error: mysql:21 unknown option 'missingok' -- ignoring line
 
Something is running under a cron like way (don't know of a better way
to explain it) at 1 in the morning
Crontabs' of every account have been zero-ed. Emails are sent to
root at machinename so I'm assuming that what ever it is, is ran under root
(I know - I'm a genus! It's called logic beyond dirt.)
 
I just don't know where to begin because sun cobalt raq2s' are so ass
backwards. Nothing works the way it's supposed to, or maybe it was just
engineered to be a piece of kaka (i'm not a big fan of raq2s' - can you
tell?). 
 
/etc/cron.daily contains three scripts:
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root           51 Jan 25  1999 logrotate
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root          402 Aug  1  2000 makewhatis.cron
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root          557 Mar  4  1999 updatedb.cron
none of which (given a quick once over) looks to be the culprit of my
error emails. (but i could be wrong)
 
timmy!
