+
+You may wish to have the vulnerabilities file downloaded daily so that
+it remains current. This may be done by adding an appropriate entry
+to the root users crontab(5) entry. For example the entry
+
+# download vulnerabilities file
+0 3 * * * ${PREFIX}/sbin/download-vulnerability-list >/dev/null 2>&1
+
+will update the vulnerability list every day at 3AM.
+
+In addition, you may wish to run the package audit from the daily
+security script. This may be accomplished by adding the following
+lines to /etc/security.local
+
+if [ -x ${PREFIX}/sbin/audit-packages ]; then
+ ${PREFIX}/sbin/audit-packages
+fi
