below excution.. when run directly from console.. works.. (through script name).. but when i run from cron.. i get below... why?

I have auto ssh into server enabled via authorization key..

Is there way for me to run as me? for cron or??

[ output from cron.. executing the script.. that was mail to me ]
+ rm -rf /tmp/something
+ date +%H
current=23
+ ssh server01 tail -1 /xxx/xxx
/home/user/filename: ssh: execute permission denied

this is how i have it in my script

o=`ssh user@$host tail -1 /xxx/xxxx`

your script lacks execute permission. just give it execute permission and it should run fine from cron also.

what do u mean??

in my script.. this is just part of it.. what do u mean by I need to give a excute permission??

for host in hosta hostb hostc hostd
do
o=`ssh user@$host tail -1 /xxx/xxxx`
result=`echo $o | egrep -i "parttern b"`
if [ -n "$result" ]

fileitself.. I gave 777 permission...
