Hi all,

I need to run fetchnews as a 'root' cronjob

I have tried both crontab -e ( as root )

(A)
/bin/bash
0-59/3 * * * * /opt/leafnode/fetchnews

and (B)
/bin/bash

0-59/3 * * * * /root/getnews

where /root/getnews is :

#!/bin/sh
/opt/leafnode/sbin/fetchnews

when i run /opt/leafnode/sbin/fetchnews, FETCHNEWS works fine ...

What am i missing ?

Regards

Anurag
