However because it often returns an exit code of 1 I get daily emails from cron because it thinks something is wrong. Looking in the man page reveals this:
RETURN CODES
0 : Database succesfully updated.1 : Database is up-to-date.
I'm new to the *nix world (about 3 years now) but I thought returning anything other than a zero means an error. I'd like to get error messages, but I don't need to get email telling me the database was up to date. Does anyone know why it was set up this way, and what should I do about it?
