You should not have to restart crond on the cube. This happens automatically if you use "crontab -e" correct?
>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 09/25/02 10:38AM >>> No i did not do that in the past but i tried it today and it did not work. At 1:35 i wanted to run it as a test. I had the following in the /etc/crontab 00 13:35 * * * (cd /home/sites/home/users/admin/chkrootkit-0.37; ./chkrootkit | mail -s "chkrootkit output" root 2>&1) Again it works when i put the following below at the prompt. But not in the crontab #cd /home/sites/home/users/admin/chkrootkit-0.37; ./chkrootkit | mail -s "chkrootkit output" root 2>&1) Any other ideas here?
