I spoke to soon. It worked fine when I ran it directly from the command line, but crontab pukes it up: jjj@Devil-Bonobo:/media/jjj$ crontab -e crontab: installing new crontab "/tmp/crontab.xbNVsm/crontab":0: bad minute errors in crontab file, can't install. Do you want to retry the same edit? (y/n) y This is the line in crontab: 0 3 * * * rsync -avx --delete /home/jjj/Mail/ /media/jjj/Data/Mail The 'minute' is 0, which worked before.
