on the command line? Wouldn't it be easier just to run "crontab -e",
Danny, in this case remember to read your command line before pressing enter; just to check if you get "crontab -r" instead of "crontab -e" - R and E keys are 'neighbors keys', and you'll get almost *opposite* behavior in each case... :-)
I never did that, but saw a friend suffering from such mistake
Huh, I've never typed "crontab -r" before just now, and I've been editing crontabs for quite some time. That's certainly an accident waiting to happen, though. I have a hard time pressing "r" with my "e" finger, luckily, so I think I'm safe for now. Now, if ever a command comes out where I have to type "the" rather than "teh", I'll be in trouble. That "e" always wants to beat the "h" out of the gate, on my keyboards, at least... :) --Danny
