Kind of on the same track as David Syers, but please keep in mind that (most likely) the user that your cronjobs are run as, has a different path ($PATH) set then the user you log in as. If you are using any commands that are not built into the shell, like pkill in this case, it is likely that you have to specify the full path to them (get it through 'which pkill') in your script. Good luck, --- Regime
