Hi all, I got back from vacation yesterday, switched on the PC after 3 weeks, and weird things happen: Cron does not seem to work anymore: Editting my personal crontab gives me this [paul@internet paul]$ crontab -e crontab: can't open log file /var/log/cron: Is a directory crontab: can't write to log file paul (11/04-11:29:29-1115) BEGIN EDIT (paul) crontab: installing new crontab crontab: can't open log file /var/log/cron: Is a directory crontab: can't write to log file paul (11/04-11:29:32-1115) REPLACE (paul) crontab: can't open log file /var/log/cron: Is a directory crontab: can't write to log file paul (11/04-11:29:32-1115) END EDIT (paul) When I log in now, I am greeted by a message similar to: PAM_pwdb[number]: (login) session opened by user Paul (UID=0) Finally, when the system is running for a while, I can't open a new login session anymore, it just locks up and sits there. Anyone any thoughts? Paul -- VENI, VIDI, VELCRO I came, I saw, I stuck around http://nlpagan.net - ICQ 147208 - Registered Linux User 174403 -=PINE 4.21 on Linux Mandrake 7.1=-
