Note, this shell script is a replacement for the original C version. I suggested its inclusion in <URL:http://bugs.debian.org/660216 > but later concluded that it was better to try to get the function into an existing package instead of creating a deb with only one binary for such small task. And then the shell wrapper came around because it removed the need to compile something to get cron jobs working. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
