Just wanted to know why I get an email everyday from my server with the following. I do also recieve a second email that has useful log information.

Subject: Cron <root@server1> run-parts /etc/cron.daily

/etc/cron.daily/00webalizer:

I get this too. I usually start with two such entries, and two more (usually) appear every day until a week is up, at which point it resets to just 2.

These e-mails are coming from the “default” webalizer cron job that gets installed (but isn’t need or used by SiteWorx). You can safely delete the /etc/cron.daily/00webalizer file to stop these daily messages.
