I am doing a md5sum to verify nightly transfer of files between

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.
thanks Scott
While this is true script is not reading the contents of the diff into mail when the script
is executed from my normal shell. Is there another way to do this?
