Title: Remove Flexbackup Report ?
Post by: Lowell Fuher on October 13, 2004, 02:52:46 PM

I know this may be here, but I can't find it, I have a need to remove the Successful Flexbackup report emailed to the Admin. I have looked through the flexbackup files, the cron.d files, and many others, and I can't seem to find it. Help?

I think the flexbackup report is due to cron rather than flexbackup. I believe any task launched by cron will have its output e-mailed to root or the nominated e-mail address (check /etc/crontab for the MAILTO entry).

In /etc/cron.d you will find the file backup which launches the e-smith backup. Edit the backup file and try adding a redirection to a file at the end of the command line so that output from the backup script is sent to a file instead of to console (which is sent by mail to root or the nominated address).
