Hello List,
I am not that experienced with crontab entries and I can't seem to
figure out how to delete one that is causing emails to be sent to my
admin user account. The crontab entry was created to run a .pl script
every hour, which then generates an email that is supposed to go to a
another user. Since it cannot reach this user, it gets bounced to me
Admin account I think.
I deleted this user's account and now I am not sure how to delete the
crontab entry for this account. When I do a "crontab -u exampleuser",
it says "user not found" or something to that effect. How do I go
about finding where this crontab entry was created, what user it is
attached to, and how to kill it off? When I do a "crontab -e" as root,
the text file that the editor program opens says cleary not to edit that
file... ?!
Any pointers would be much appreciated,
Thanks,
~ Theo
