I've searched and didn't come up with anything. I'm getting this message on both of my systems, I've just been doing "echo '' > /usr/bin/update" to get rid of it but want to know exactly what's going on.

Here's the output I'm getting every 5 minutes from /usr/bin/update:


/usr/bin/update: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `<'
/usr/bin/update: line 1: `<div align=center><h3>Error. Page cannot be displayed. Please contact service provider for more details.</h3></div>'

My understanding is that DA uses this file to queue system changes. Is that right? Where could this error be coming from? It's quite annoying.

Thanks for anything. :)

What OS Distribution are you using? My CentOS systems don't include /usr/bin/update. The contents that's causing the problem is part of an html file.
