1/ please post a *new* message when writing to the list. Replying to an old (unrelated) message confuses thread-aware mailers, which makes your question harder to find (and thus answer). 2/ does Tomcat always run as root? That's just a side concern, but you probably don't want to do that. 3/ You mentioned that all of the proper environment variables are set, but are they set just in root's shell? Keep in mind, cron is a barebones environment. You'd do well to use wrapper scripts for cron jobs, such that the wrapper can set any needed env vars. 4/ What are the messages in the error logs, cron logs, etc? What "doesn't work?" -QM -- software -- http://www.brandxdev.net tech news -- http://www.RoarNetworX.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
