Re: [cobalt-users] CRON DAEMON PROBLEM

What is the problem? What is the remedy?

/usr/sbin/tmpwatch is as far as I got.

Thanks in advance.

Looks like a file is missing. Either it was there and is no longer, or the cron job is running in a different directory and isn't able to find it in its PATH...
Check the job that's failing and see what it's trying to do. That will dictate what the fix is (replacing the missing file - and trying to figure out why it's missing! - or modifying the cron job commands).
