This disappeared when I switched to "Termination OFF" (I had both the internal and external chain).

I suppose that somebody (something ?) used the machine at 02:00:00, hopefully accessing your CD drive... :-) First guess: did you leave the CD mounted? At 02:00:00 cron starts the daily script, and that may somehow access your drive (lot of "find" in there...). > Hans Bye, UP To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
