WEEKLY(5)		    BSD File Formats Manual		     WEEKLY(5)

NAME
     weekly, weekly.conf — weekly maintenance

DESCRIPTION
     The /etc/weekly script is run, by default, every Saturday morning on a
     NetBSD system.  The /etc/weekly.conf file specifies which of the standard
     weekly services are performed.

     The variables described below can be set to “YES” or “NO” in the
     /etc/weekly.conf file.  The default settings are in the
     /etc/defaults/weekly.conf file.  (Note that you should never edit
     /etc/defaults/weekly.conf directly, as it is often replaced during system
     upgrades.)

     rebuild_locatedb  This rebuilds the locate(1) database,
		       /var/db/locate.database, which must also exist, in
		       order to be rebuilt.

     rebuild_mandb     This rebuilds the apropos(1) database /var/db/man.db,
		       using makemandb(8) with the -f option.

     rebuild_whatisdb  This rebuilds the whatis(1) database(s).	 Note that
		       NetBSD provides a default whatis.db for the system man‐
		       ual pages and this may not be needed.  (Adjust your
		       /etc/man.conf as necessary; see man.conf(5) for
		       details.)
