Hello, I'm running MRTG on a Red Hat system, every 5 minutes through cron.
0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg If MRTG experiences any errors (like a host is down) it sends an email to root. I would prefer those e-mails to go to someone else. So I tried this... 0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg 2>&1 | mail -s "MRTG Report" [EMAIL PROTECTED] However, that creates an e-mail EVERY 5 minutes, even if things are okay. I am guessing it has something to do with stdout vs stderr. Any idea how to structure the cron so I get emails to [EMAIL PROTECTED], not root.
