I encountered a couple years ago a problem with a cron command, which I ended up tracing to cron and the shell (debian system, cannot remember exactly if it was a different shell or different handling of the shell that cron uses). My research led me to a new habit/method of creating cronjobs, one that forces cron to execute the commands in a bash shell just like you do from the command line. As Helmut suggests, put your commands in a file, and then use the bash command to call the script: 0 10 * * * bash /path/to/file/with/commands Bob Miller 334-7117/660-5315 http://computerisms.ca [email protected] Network, Internet, Server, and Open Source Solutions -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
