This file should fix the problem with cron where it executes a command more than once. This fix is considered unsupported because it hasn't gone thru SQA. The file is located in aux.patches/unsupported/2.0/cron Make sure you make a backup copy of the old cron program and that you restart cron after installing the new binary. Hope this helps Antonio -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- #include /* I'll think of a better one later */ Antonio Ordonez amdahl \ Technical Communications/Direct Response Center pyramid!sun - apple!antonio Apple Computer, Inc.
