put the full path 0 0 * * * /usr/local/bin/bkup.cron
Also, check your mail. Cron should have complained.

Hi all! I am trying for the first time to run a script from cron. I made the following entry:
0 0 * * * bkup.cron
The script, bkup.cron, is located in /usr/local/bin. The crontab file, root, is located in /var/spool/cron/crontabs. To initiate this in cron I entered the following command:
crontab /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root
Needless to say, at 12:00 AM, this process did not run. The script, bkup.cron does run from the command line. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
