In the last episode (Mar 29), Rob W. said: > newsyslog: nonexistent time for 'at' value: > /var/log/ipfw/ipfw.log 600 10 * $W0D2 Z > > I keep getting this message emailed to me.

You sure you don't have a line like this in /etc/crontab? 0 * * * * root newsyslog It looks like newsyslog is having problems parsing that $W0D2 value, but it works okay for me. Possibly the timezone you are in has a DST switch that skips directly from 1:59 to 3:00 next Sunday, which means there is no 2:00, which is why newsyslog is complaining. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
