Heyyas, |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
I have been getting these errors with the latest vixie-cron, and |
| 7 |
have noticed similar things in the past with |
| 8 |
other cron daemons, and other systems. This is the first time I've |
| 9 |
seen it with vixie cron. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
I have been getting mails with subject/content like this: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Subject: Cron <root@penis> est -x /usr/sbin/run-crons && /usr/sbin/run-crons |
| 14 |
/bin/bash: line 1: est: command not found |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Subject: Cron <root@penis> m -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.hourly |
| 17 |
/bin/bash: line 1: m: command not found |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
The cronjobs causeing this, I assume are: |
| 20 |
*/10 * * * * root test -x /usr/sbin/run-crons && /usr/sbin/run-crons |
| 21 |
0 * * * * root rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.hourly |
| 22 |
Respectivly. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
So it looks like cron is accepting 'root' as the username to run |
| 25 |
the command as, is doing SOMETHING with the |
| 26 |
first letter of each command, and running the rest as something |
| 27 |
seperate. Does vixie-cron not accept that |
| 28 |
username-before-command syntax? I noticed that I couldn't find |
| 29 |
anything mentioning it in `man crontab` or `man 5 |
| 30 |
crontab`. If so, I am assuming this crontab was installed with the |
| 31 |
stage3 tarball and not vixiecron? |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Anyinsight would be appreciated. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
Thanks much, |
| 36 |
Korf |
