I have looked at CSF.CONF and could not find a setting to disable this.

Can someone please direct me to where it can be disabled?

Thanks
 
The "Directadmin has been updated to version xx.xx" email notification is not send by CSF. Because CSF is the firewall it will only send firewall messages.

You might try to set this in the directadmin.conf file:
notify_on_autoupdate=0
and don't forget to restart DA after the change:
service directadmin restart
 
I added that setting to "/usr/local/directadmin/conf/directadmin.conf" because it was not present.

Thanks, much appreciated :)
 
That is correct. It's not present in the directadmin.conf by default because the conf would be filled with options, so most of the default settings they leave out of the conf file.
The default is notify_on_autoupdate=1 which is why it's not present, so yes you have to add it to change it.

You're welcome!
