>Description:

`$ man 8 periodic' shows followings.  In EXAMPLES section, the
variable name of system registry is obsoleted.

Local_cron in /etc/defaults/rc.conf and /usr/sbin/periodic was
 changed to local_periodic at Aug 19 1997.

EXAMPLES
     Additionally, the system registry will typically have a local_cron vari-
     able reading:
           local_cron="/usr/local/etc/periodic /usr/X11R6/etc/periodic" # cron
           script dirs.

>How-To-Repeat:

$ man 8 periodic
