If it's a cron job, and the person administering the machine leaves, but the obsolete entry continues to be submitted by cron (the assumption is that the replacement admninistrator is either ignorant about the cron job or the maps, or incompetent), how is the problem solved? How would you have cron validate the information in the map entry? -- Bruce Lilly ...uupsi!monymsys!sonyd1!blilly!bruce
