cron and annoyances

[Chuck Hallenbeck]

Tyler,

Look in /etc/crontab and find out what application is run every 15
minutes to produce the mail you are getting. Redirect the output of
that application to /dev/null by adding the necessary redirection
information to the line that runs the application.

Better yet, read the mail you are being sent to learn what the error is
that you are being told about, and fix it.

Chuck
