# $FreeBSD: release/9.1.0/etc/periodic/daily/450.status-security 221432 2011-05-04 12:48:02Z netchild $
>Description:
The current /etc/periodic/daily/450.status-security combines two 'case' statements together resulting in the second case statement being passed when daily_status_security_inline="YES".  When daily_show_success="NO" this will also result in the security report vanishing rather than showing up as intended by the "") rc=3;; statement in the script.

See discussion here for more details and a more detailed breakdown.

echo 'daily_show_success="NO"' >> /etc/periodic.conf
echo 'daily_status_security_inline="YES"' >> /etc/periodic.conf
periodic daily
