Hi steve,

Yes the above is one line indeed.

Setting up the crontab like this:
0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * lynx -dump
http://www.domain.com/netstatus/cron_script/cron_script.php

Is resulting in the following error on the cobalt..

/bin/sh: /home/sites/www.domain.com/web/netstatus/cron_script: is a
directory

Doesn't make sense to me....
