Should
date '+%a %b %e %Y'
work from within crontab?
It work with sh -c.
The mail I get from the cron job is:
Subject: Cron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> date '+
X-Cron-Env: <SHELL=/bin/sh>
X-Cron-Env: <PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games>
X-Cron-Env: <HOME=/home/shaul>
X-Cron-Env: <LOGNAME=shaul>
Sender: CronDaemon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date: Fri, 01 Mar 2002 20:39:02 +0200
