Hi, > The daily backup script works fine when run manually as sudo but doesn't > complete when run as a root cronjob.
The classic reason for this is difference in environment variables. I.e. the cron job could die from a non set variable. The classic remedy would be to set the missing variables inside the cronjob script. > /root/uhuru_backup/uhuru.daily.sh Consider to put some "echo" commands into the script and direct them to a log file: log_file=/tmp/uhuru_daily_sh.log ... echo "Currently at: ..." >>$log_file ... This should give you an idea what part of the script causes the premature end. Have a nice day :) Thomas
