Yes. Exactly like that in Bering rc3. > I tried it just as posted and I get nothing in the /tmp directory. > I tested it from the command line and it of course worked fine. How long did you wait? I had to wait a couple of minutes. I'd say that if it doesn't do it on it's own in 5 minutes, then you can try restarting cron manually and see if that'll work. As a last resort, you can try backing your etc.lrp package (with the /bin/date test line in /etc/crontab) and rebooting. > Does anyone have a clue what might need fixed in cron? > This is a Bering setup.
