Cron is core dumping fairly regularly - 5 or 6 times in the last 4 days. The problems first started when I added the `t' queue (for troff). The `h' queue (for high priority batch jobs) was added at the same time. /usr/lib/cron/queuedefs looks like this: a.2j14n b.3j14n90w t.2j13n90w h.1j0n90w Before I dive in and start hacking, has anyone done it before? Phil.
