Hi Richard, thank you for your reply, I will look at these more closely as for the moment I have not set a user specific cron, I am just using the root to run these.

All I did was follow the tutorial, perhaps I have missed some points ;(

Cheers

Norman

That's the system crontab, which should have a user field in it.  How
about your user-specific crontab from /var/spool/cron/crontabs/ ?
That should *not* have a user field in it AFAIK.
