Keep in mind, that cron jobs do not have the same environment settings as a login shell. It may be that you need to use absolute paths in your script (or set PATH accordingly); i.e. /bin/mount If you're using sudo in non-interactive scripts it's probably a good idea to use NOPASSWD: in your sudoers file. However, since the crontab is running as root, the use of sudo is redundant anyway. -- Joel Shea <jws...@gmail.com> -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
