So what about: cron.* scripts should not produce any non-error output in general. An exception may be made if the intention of the script is to mail a status report to the administrator. Though I feel that the exeption is to broad. I don't want to be mailed status reports like "everything is fine" from dozends of machines. ciao, 2ri -- Der beste Beweis für die Existenz ausserirdischer _Intelligenz_ ist der, dass noch niemand versucht hat, Kontakt mit uns aufzunehmen. -- Bill Watterson
