Running ls /etc/cron* I get:
[root at kauko etc]# ls cron*
crontab
cron.d:
sysstat
cron.daily:
00-logwatch 0anacron logrotate rpm
slrnpull-expire tetex.cron tripwire-check
00webalizer inn-cron-expire makewhatis.cron slocate.cron
squirrelmail.cron tmpwatch
cron.hourly:
diskcheck inn-cron-nntpsend inn-cron-rnews
cron.monthly:
0anacron
cron.weekly:
0anacron makewhatis.cron
I don't see anything that would obviously would run mailman. Any idea
where it might be?
As to why mailman is there, I chose "install everything" when I did the
initial install. As I discover I need something, chances are it's already
there.
THANKS!
