I am using a script donated by one of our group to keep my internet connection [hopefully] alive. I am having some problem w/the CRON e-mailing an error to me each & every time it executes --whether as root or <user>. The error follows: '/bin/sh: Line 1: /usr/local/bin/ck_internet: Permission denied' For some odd reason is is not appearing as a script, though right out of the box it states in line 1: '#!/bin/sh' as any script I've made does & is recognized. What's wrong!? Script follows: #!/bin/sh # # Script to check if modem is disconnected & try reconnecting # <snip>
I would check the perms and make sure that the script is executable, i.e. -rwxr-xr-x perms would make it excutable for anyone. Change to suite your needs. Ken
