Yes, that's good. Incidentally, you don't need a '&' at the end of the crontab line, because distccd detaches from the shell after starting up. It might also be slightly more robust to specify --daemon, though if it works for you without it there's no need to change. -- Martin _______________________________________________ distcc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.samba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/distcc
