The script works when I manually execute it. The path and time variables for the script file are correct but when the time comes for it to run nothing happens. If I set up the crontab file with the command(that I have in the script file) itself rather than the path to the script file it works! I've tried different permission settings but no luck. Any suggestions? GW To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
