Hello! hello!
I'm having issues getting cronjob notifications. probably a misconfig. i'm fairly new to freebsd, comming from a linux platform. i was told nothing needs to be configured sendmail wise to get this going. i can relay messgs via either 'mail' or '/usr/sbin/sendmail' out just fine. Cron itself runs perferctly, as I can see it in the log files. Sep 30 12:53:58 web01 crontab[45138]: (aroadmin) END EDIT (aroadmin) Sep 30 12:54:00 web01 /usr/sbin/cron[459]: (aroadmin) RELOAD (tabs/aroadmin) Sep 30 12:54:00 web01 /usr/sbin/cron[45206]: (aroadmin) CMD (/bin/ls) Sep 30 12:55:01 web01 /usr/bin/crontab[45507]: (root) LIST (aroadmin) Sep 30 12:55:02 web01 /usr/bin/crontab[45512]: (root) LIST (aroadmin) Sep 30 12:55:38 web01 crontab[45605]: (aroadmin) BEGIN EDIT (aroadmin) Sep 30 12:55:44 web01 crontab[45605]: (aroadmin) REPLACE (aroadmin) Sep 30 12:55:44 web01 crontab[45605]: (aroadmin) END EDIT (aroadmin) Sep 30 12:55:58 web01 /usr/bin/crontab[45714]: (root) LIST (aroadmin) Sep 30 12:56:00 web01 /usr/sbin/cron[459]: (aroadmin) RELOAD (tabs/aroadmin) Sep 30 12:56:00 web01 /usr/sbin/cron[45722]: (aroadmin) CMD (/bin/ls) That's from me editing crontabls via the control panel. I have of course changed the time so I could test it. This is all maillog shows regarding it Sep 30 12:54:00 web01 sendmail[45210]: j8UGs0cs045210: from=aroadmin, size=0, class=0, nrcpts=0, msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED] verdot.com >, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sep 30 12:54:00 web01 sendmail[45209]: j8UGs08L045209: from=aroadmin, size=0, class=0, nrcpts=0, msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED] verdot.com >, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sep 30 12:56:00 web01 sendmail[45727]: j8UGu0co045727: from=aroadmin, size=0, class=0, nrcpts=0, msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED] verdot.com >, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sep 30 12:56:00 web01 sendmail[45725]: j8UGu0gr045725: from=aroadmin, size=0, class=0, nrcpts=0, msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED] verdot.com >, [EMAIL PROTECTED] finally, i'm trying to mail out to an yahoo.com address as to avoid questing/confustions about receipients ability to receive mail. any help is well appreciated. also, i don't want to switch to qmail, since this is a web server acting as part of H-sphere hosting cluster. Yes, either mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] or /usr/sbin/sendmail -v [EMAIL PROTECTED] work perfectly fine. I am trying to get a notification that a simple command like /bin/ls or /bin/pwd was successfully executed. in linux, crontab -e edits one's crontab. you put a correct crontab entry to excute /bin/ls or /bin/pwd and it'll mail you to the MAILTO address with a notification that the cron has been run. -- Erald Troja etroja at albunix.org _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
