Is there a known problem with /etc/cron under 4.3BSD?? On our system (11/750) it simply ignores about half the lines in crontab. Reordering the file does'nt change anything so the problem must (?!?!?) be somewhere else. (This file worked fine under 4.2) Lindsay lindsay at cheviot.uucp lindsay%cheviot.ncl at ucl-cs.arpa
