We have an empty at.deny file and no at.allow file, but the "at" commmand can not execute any user (including root) jobs. We addin a at.allow file but still no luck at all. In all cases, the /usr/lib/atrun is invoked periodically, the /usr/spool/at/lasttimedone is updated correctly, user's batch jobs (/usr/spool/at/90.*.*.*) are removed after the execution of atrun, but it just refuses to execute any user's batch job. The mod. of atrun is rwx-r-xr-x. Any clues? Thanks in advance. Kong (kong@cs.ucla.edu)
