*say* EOF?
Unless you type it one time too much, and ... uupps, there goes the shell :)


Which is why I have 'set -o ignoreeof' in my ~/.bashrc.


Perfect!
Thanks.

Or you could set the IGNOREEOF environment variable.

And you don't like ^D?  Then stty can change EOF to some other sequence.

I recieved some advice about not having a network drive attached to the profile I was logging into so I uninstalled cygwin and installed it with an account that does not have a network share included with the login.

After this I setup cron using cron-config.

I selected yes to netsec if that is okay. I have a general idea of what netsec is but don't know how it pertains to this problem.

Is this what all of you guys are saying this file should look like?

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /
$ more cronmail.sh
cat > /cronmail.txt

I keep getting this in the eventvwr:
The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( /usr/sbin/cron ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: /usr/sbin/cron: PID 2624: (sys-scheduler) RELOAD (tabs/sys-scheduler).

My crontab looks like this:
5       *       *       *       *       /croncheckscript.sh

The croncheckscript.sh looks like this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /
$ more croncheckscript.sh
echo are_you_working  >> cronoutput.out

My Permsiions look like this and this :-[ thing still wont' work?
