I know that there's been many posts regarding "weird" crond messages, but a quick search didn't show anything useful. I've two RH 8.0 systems that are almost completely identical from a package installation/configuration perspective. However, on the one system I'm getting hourly mail messages that are being generated by crond, but the weird thing is that I don't have any files in /etc/cron.hourly. Here is the message: Message 1: From root@myserver Mon Jan 19 19:01:01 2004 Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2004 19:01:00 -0500 From: root@myserver (Cron Daemon) To: root@myserver Subject: Cron <root@myserver> root run-parts /etc/cron.hourly X-Cron-Env: <SHELL=/bin/bash> X-Cron-Env: <PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin> X-Cron-Env: <MAILTO=root> X-Cron-Env: <HOME=/> X-Cron-Env: <LOGNAME=root> /bin/bash: line 1: root: command not found As this thing is being generated hourly, it's very quickly filling up my mailbox. Does anyone have any clues about this one? Sincerely, L. Christopher Luther Technical Consultant Xybernaut Solutions, Inc.
