Hi, I have cron installed and it works fine. However, I need to run a backup script as a user since I mount a novell network acount with the same username and save my data. So I tried to set up a cron job as a user. I created a file called allow in /var/spool/cron which contained only my username. I edited my crontab file using the command crontab -e and I restarted the cron daemon just in case , but the thing didn't work.
I am wondering what I might hve done wrong Any help will be appreciated Thanks George ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- George Kapetanios Churchill College Cambridge, CB3 0DS E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] U.K. WWW: http://garfield.chu.cam.ac.uk/~gk205/work_info.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
