Cronjob - revisited

Hi all. To this day I still can't get the following to work from a cron job: mt -f /dev/st0 setblk 32768 && tar -cSPf /dev/st0 -b 64 /store/bkup && mt -f /dev/st0 rewoffl It returns the following error: tar: /dev/st0: Wrote only 0 of 32768 bytes tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now The job runs without complaining on a root konsole. If anyone can help sort this out once and for all I *really* will be chuffed. TIA Best regards, Darryl ---- Edgemead High School (Northern Suburbs, Cape Town) Powered by SuSE Linux 8.2 ----
