on 11/2/2007 3:39 PM Mark Snyder spake the following:
I am doing a md5sum to verify nightly transfer of files between servers
and want to email the results to support.
Everything works fine except reading the contents of the check file into
mail.
Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated.
#!/bin/bash
cd /bak
md5sum -b `date '+%m-%d-%y'`.tgz > `date '+%m-%d-%y'`.ver
diff -s `date '+%m-%d-%y'`.md5 `date '+%m-%d-%y'`.ver > `date
'+%m-%d-%y'`.chk
#outfile=`date '+%m-%d-%y'`.chk #setup name of file to read
into mail
mail -s 'file verify' me@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx <<MAIL_IN
~r `date '+%m-%d-%y'`.chk
.
MAIL_IN
exit
entering the same mail commands from a command prompt works.

Cron doesn't always have access to the same path and environment as a logged
in user. You might have to export some environment var's in the beginning of
the script.

MailScanner is like deodorant...
You hope everybody uses it, and
you notice quickly if they don't!!!!
