Hi santosh, If you have pasted the following:
| > /bin/awk -F: '$3 > 100 { print $1"@yourdomain.com" }' /etc/passwd > | /path-to-dir/allusers in you crontab (crontab -e), then its not going to work as you did not mention the time. You have do it exactly like following: 0 6 * * * /bin/awk -F: '$3 > 100 { print $1"@yourdomain.com" }' /etc/passwd >/path-to-dir/allusers When you enter 'crontab -e' in your command prompt, it will take you to vi editor, press 'i' (without the inverted commas), then paste the above line and then press this key combination: ':wq' (again without the inverted commas) and press enter. :) If you make any mistakes and it does not work, you should get email about it in your root's mailbox. By the way, the time is 6 am not 6 pm. Please consult the man pages for 'crontab' and 'vi' for more information.
