hmm..
Code: -------------------- Would become # get number of known players players=$(printf "player count ?\nexit\n" | bin/nc $server $port | cut -d ' ' -f 3) -------------------- > jan@muzzigbox:~$ whereis nc > *nc: /bin/nc* /bin/nc.openbsd /usr/share/man/man1/nc.1.gz > jan@muzzigbox:~$ > please use the complete path - /bin/nc - where the executable nc is stored. But /bin should be in the path already - please add > echo $PATH >> $LOGFILE into the script and wait till crontab starts - if there is something like > /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin > in the logfile - then there is another strange thing. Btw: which Linux do you using - squeezeplug is debian? DId you *sudo crontab -e* or crontab e when your in $ Mode? Eays to find - use both of these commands and look under which command the script is shown.
