Hi,
Please point me to what I missed. I have a simple cron job doing backups using tar and
find. Works flawlessly in an interactive shell. Cron also works fine for fetching
mail, etc. The combination doesn't work.
When I run my bash (tcsh also fails) script via Cron the wrong find is found. Instead
of /usr/bin/find I get the windows version. My /etc/profile does prepend the
directories, the permissions seen accurate - as per the other fixes that were in the
archives.
What did I miss?
