I noticed that this was sent by email by cron when attempted to execute the process:

 Your Terminal type is unknown!

 Enter a terminal type: [vt100]

Why? i don't know. I added TERM=220 into root's crontab and it worked. The thing is that it never needed it .. why now it does?

Regards,

Hello list, i am having strange issues with openbsd 4.8 and cron .

This is a OpenBSD 4.8 with it's kernel modified to have pci.c rev 1.72 , in order to make it run on a IBM x336 server. Everything was working perfect. Until i added today a new user. Then i used vipw to change it's group. After that i noticed that my hourly script configured at cron was not being executed. When i looked the messages log i saw this:

Notice how time jumps after 10:00am . Notice after 14:00 that when syslog restarts it shows 11:00 , the right time. .

I added the pwd.db and localtime into postfix's etc. I also started ntpd to set time . No difference with cron, it does not run it's hourly process anymore

Date looks fine when i look at it:
# date
Tue Jul 19 12:29:03 ART 2011

But cron does not execute it's processes anymore. Any help will be appreciated!
