Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG

Hello!
I am puzzled:
On a 3.4-STABLE (~Jan.2000) FreeBSD box that has been working just fine,
in one night there were about 10 messages from cron.
One was generated while running periodic/daily,
the rest, - while running adjkentz -a.
Then all messages just stopped.
The load on this host is usually rather low,
and practically never exceeds 1, if that matters.
An example of the messages is below.

Any idea is appreciated.

Igor
