Im not following the path issue...? When the job is ran from a term, no matter what directory Im in, its fine, ran using Webmin -> Sheduled Cron Jobs -> (Select the job) -> "Run now" it runs fine, but if CRON runs it over night I get the hwclock command not found...
The job is set to run as root. Thanks for the help. On Tuesday 16 April 2002 08:41, you were heard blurting out: > Bill, this is almost definitely a $PATH issue.
