Answering myself it may be related to http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports-bugs/2006-April/086659.html I'm using openldap-server-2.3.24 and nss_ldap-1.250. My /var/log/debug.log was full of: Jul 22 20:34:04 castor sm-mta[58735]: NSSWITCH(nss_method_lookup): ldap, passwd, endpwent, not found Jul 22 20:34:04 castor last message repeated 3 times Jul 22 20:34:04 castor sm-msp-queue[58736]: NSSWITCH(nss_method_lookup): ldap, passwd, endpwent, not found Jul 22 20:34:04 castor sm-msp-queue[58736]: NSSWITCH(nss_method_lookup): ldap, passwd, endpwent, not found Jul 22 20:35:00 castor cron[58738]: NSSWITCH(nss_method_lookup): ldap, group, setgrent, not found Jul 22 20:35:00 castor cron[58738]: NSSWITCH(nss_method_lookup): ldap, group, getgrent_r, not found Jul 22 20:35:00 castor cron[58738]: NSSWITCH(nss_method_lookup): ldap, group, endgrent, not found Jul 22 20:35:00 castor cron[58738]: NSSWITCH(nss_method_lookup): ldap, passwd, endpwent, not found I rebooted the machine and now everything seems to work fine. When I put "14 8 * * * root echo test" in /etc/crontab a mail is now sent as expected. Any idea why a reboot seems to have solved the problem? Thierry.
