Another tip RE: environment variables & cron, if you submit the job via at |
| 6 |
(sys-process/at), it will create an executable script in |
| 7 |
/var/spool/at/atjobs for running your submitted job, but the script includes |
| 8 |
the environment values from the session used to submit the job. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
So after submission via at, you can take the atjob file, copy it to your |
| 11 |
/etc/cron.* directory and you'll have everything you need regarding |
| 12 |
environment. |
