What are the permissions on /etc/crontab? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, October 03, 2002 1:20 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [expert] crontab -e AND date in 9.0
I have 9.0 "final" loaded and have 2 problems currently... when I run crontab -e to add an entry (as root or a normal user) it creates a temporary file such as /tmp/crontab.24908. When I finish my entries, do :wq and try to verify my entries with crontab -l or by rerunning crontab -e, the temporary file was never written to a permanent file. I have not had this problem previously; is this a known problem and is there a known fix or am I missing something I need to do? Also, in trying to set my time I ran date with the -u option (print or set Coordinated Universal Time). I need to reset my system to use CDT rather than UTC. How do I reset my timezone, please? Thanks, Joe
