      Hi,

      I just upgraded my pfsense installation from 2.4.5 to 2.5.0

      I reinstalled the node exporter package to prepare for using Prometheus and Grafana soon.
      but now I get a mail every minute

      • with this in the subject :
      (myshostname) - Arpwatch Notification : Cron <root@(myhostname)> /usr/bin/nice -n20 /usr/local/bin/python2.7 /usr/local/share/pfSense-pkg-node_exporter/interface-collector.py
      

      and in the mail body :

      X-Cron-Env: <SHELL=/bin/sh>
      X-Cron-Env: <PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin>
      X-Cron-Env: <HOME=/root>
      X-Cron-Env: <LOGNAME=root>
      X-Cron-Env: <USER=root>
      
      nice: /usr/local/bin/python2.7: No such file or directory
      

      I've looked around the settings to suspend the mailalerts but could not find where to do it.
      in the arpwatch settings : arpwatch is set to disabled

      Also the node_exporter is disabled for now

      But the mails keep coming.

      Anyone who can assist or shed some light?

      Thanks,
