Hello,
this message I find every day in my system log several times:
"cp: error processing extended attributes: Operation not permitted"
it looks like it is connected to the daily to log archiving.
I actually didn't change anything with the cron jobs.
Any idea, how I could fix this?
Hello Matthias,
This one comes from times to times on the list; his is why I allowed
myself to change the subject, so that it relates more directly to the
"problem" (could be handy for future searches).
As you'll see hereafter, it is fortunately more a cosmetic matter than a
real problem.
Have a nice day,
Axel

The "culprit" is to be found near the end of the /usr/sbin/periodic
script:
cp /dev/null $tmp_output
