I have a simple cron job that syncs my laptop with the server and is set up to email me when the job is done. The strangeness is that I get two emails, every other day instead of an email each day. Any ideas why? My crontab is: # Set up cron variables SHELL=/bin/bash MAILTO=ckacoroski at nsd.org # Sync directories to server. 5 13 * * 1-5 $HOME/cron/backup cheers, ski -- "When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it connected to the entire universe" John Muir Chris "Ski" Kacoroski, ckacoroski at nsd.org, 425-489-6263
