Adam,

Thank you.  You will find this hard to believe, but the word "audit"
doesn't appear in my man periodic.conf or man periodic:

man periodic.conf: FreeBSD 10.1 December 25, 2013
man periodic: FreeBSD 10.1 August 30, 2007

Furthermore, you will find it hard to believe that these google
searches did not turn up the gem you provided:

freebsd ports disable vulnerability check
freebsd periodic disable vulnerability check
freebsd periodic vulnerability
freebsd volnxml
"security run output" vulnerability
"security run output" freebsd vulnxml

It's not like I wanted to post to the list, wait a day or a reply (or
no reply) knowing all the while I might be ridiculed for being lazy,
etc... but if you can point out the flaw in my thinking, logic,
man-usage, google-usage (i.e. "teach me how to fish") I will truly
appreciate it.

Thank you again,

Chris
