[CLUG] FW: Cron <root@blah> run-parts /etc/cron.daily

[adam beecher]

Here comes the newbie query...

This is RedHat 6.0, but it's a remote machine, so I don't know what was or
wasn't installed. Anyway, I get these reports from cron periodically on my
server, shunted from the root account:

/usr/bin/news.daily: /var/lib/news/.news.daily: Permission denied

I'm not really bothered about it, so I've left it go, but I'm wondering what
it is? From a quick look around on the LDP, I get the impression it's
something to do with NNTP, but what? Is it taking up resources on the
server, and if so, how do I get rid of it? :)
