Thank you. It would be easier if you gave us some information about the messages you're receiving. However, you might have a job set up to do something odd in your crontab. The command ``crontab -l'' will list the contents of your crontab. if you spot a job that you think might be causing your problem, you can remove it with ``crontab -e'' . Ciao, Sheldon.
