Well, I don't use fcron so I don't know for sure, but looking at the various manpages leads me to think that the shell= setting in the fcron config file is only a default if the shell is not otherwise specified. man 5 fcrontab says When fcron executes a command, it always sets USER, HOME, and SHELL as defined in /etc/passwd for the owner of the fcrontab from which the command is extracted. HOME and SHELL may be overridden by settings in the fcrontab, but USER may not. Every other environment assignments defined in the user fcrontab are then made, and the command is executed. Note the word 'always'. This suggests that you need SHELL = /bin/sh preceding any commands in the fcrontab entry itself. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
