say you have a crontab entry that looks like this:
0 1 * * * /usr/local/bin/snafu
to redirect standard output of this to /dev/null it just needs to be
changed to this:
0 1 * * * /usr/local/bin/snafu > /dev/null
now you shouldn't see any normal output, but if something goes
wrong cron will email you the error message(s).
I/O redirection is a very useful tool. I recommend reading up on it.
