Hi forum
One of my FreeBSD hosts is used as a simple daily desktop. No server tasks included.
To save some electrons, I like to shutdown each evening.
Unless I shutdown manually, I have a cron job to take care of it at 10.05 pm :
I don't mind that poweroff happens immediately, and shutdown can give warning/s.
Also, I don't much care for the unwanted emails sent by this cron job.
Should I simply append the usual "> /dev/null" to the cron job ?
Is this the-right-way to dispense with the emails from cron ?
TIA's
