you have to su as _you_ or have scripts that can do the tasks as root (ie "su root << rootpass")

Hi there, I have a script that works interactively. However when I schedule it to run with cron, I encounter permission and environment issues. I checked and even though my cron process has my user id, my group id is different. Interactively, I have a gid=10545(mkgroup-l-d), but in my cron process, my gid=513(None). Is there something I need to set up for cron to include my group? Is there something else I need to set so cron picks up my environment variables like PATH? thanks, Jerome -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
