Have a look in /var/log/cron for 23:30 each night. Is the job listed? If so, is there anything listed in the assp log file? What do you do with root's email? If it just accumulates in root's mailbox and you don't read it, you won't see any complaints cron makes. I always put a .forward file in root's home directory with my email address inside: # cd;echo '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' >.forward Cheers Tony -- Tony Mountifield Work: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.softins.co.uk Play: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://tony.mountifield.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
