Every five minutes, the root account on this system gets another copy
of the mail below.  I've triple-chekced and the bb4 user does NOT have any
cron jobs.  Despite the name we are running Hobbit and not BB.

Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be?  This tends to fill up
the mail spool...

Does root have a cron job that does something like "su - bb4 -c
/bb4/bb/server/ext/shares.pl"??
