Steps:
1. Enable SSH through the Services Tab and then SSH onto the FreeNAS box as root.
2. Run the command: 'mount -uw /' (don't copy the " ' " characters) - this enables the root filesystem to be written to and persist changes after a reboot
3. Use your favourite text editor (I like nano) to edit a file: 'nano /conf/base/etc/defaults/periodic.conf'

From: daily_output="root"
To: daily_output="/tmp/output.txt"
Update line 163
From: daily_status_security_output="root"
To: daily_status_security_output="/tmp/security.txt"
here you have mounted the / partition in write mode.... Do we have to revert it back to 'mount -ur /' to make it readonly ?
