Hi All, I am getting these errors in /root/dead.letter: === /etc/cron.weekly/makewhatis: line 5: /bin/nice: No such file or directory /etc/cron.weekly/makewhatis: line 5: exec: /bin/nice: cannot execute: No such file or directory === Of course, I can only find /usr/bin/nice so that may make sense. Is it a cron bug? -- Regards, Mick pgpzl96aFE5um.pgp Description: PGP signature
