Hi list!
Every day /var (which is on its own partition) becomes read-only.
# mount -o remount,rw /var
works ok but in the long run I must find and solve the problem.
This is a Sarge box. I suspect some cron job, but I don't know what to
look for. The only customized cron job I know of is this: the box
automatically installs security updates once a day from
security.debian.org with the following:
0 16 * * */2 LANG=C sudo apt-get update
30 16 * * */2 LANG=C sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade
And I have a file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50automatic-security-installs
with the following.
// Do default handling of changed conffiles (should be keep user changes)
// If default is set to do nothing, then keep user changes
//DPkg::options::--force-confold=--force-confdef;
Dpkg::Options {"--force-confold";}

Note that I use Debian version 3.1
