Hi,

any explanations why that cron job for user amanda doesn't even start:

PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/home/amanda/bin:/usr/local/sbin 

0 18 * * 1-5 amcheck merten && amdump merten 


I want to run backups at 6.00 pm on Mo-Fr as user amanda.

settings in etc/passwd are as follows:

amanda:x:501:6:Amanda Backup User:/home/amanda:/bin/bash

I'm using joe as editor instead of vi.

crond is up and running, since other cronjobs of root are executed.
I'm using Linux RedHat 6.2. Is there any general setting who is
allowed to run cron jobs at all?

Thanks
Rainer
