Hello Viktor, thank you so much for your reply! Monit runs as root, and so does the script (like in my tests). I can see it on my conole: root 13052 0.0 0.0 1940 384 ? Ss 10:54 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/local/sbin/checkUSB.sh root 13055 0.0 0.0 1940 68 ? S 10:54 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/local/sbin/checkUSB.sh Any more ideas? Thanks Tino
