I can't seem toget user cron jobs to run on my system. As I'm reading man 1 and 5 for crontab, I should be able to have the line
0,10,20,30,40,50 * * * * ch1quiz /usr/local/bin/updatehw 2>>& $HOME/tmp.quizlog in /etc/crontab, and every ten minutes user ch1quiz will run /usr/local/bin/updatehw with the output and errors appended to tmp.quizlog in its home directory. But nothing seems to happen. What am I missing? I've even tried stopping & restarting the daemon, even though it says that this is unnecessary. The ch*quiz accounts exist only to collect student homework; the script updates a web page so that they can confirm that their homework has been received. Rick --
