Repquota doesn't work as Cronjob?!?

b416 · #1 (**permalink**) 04-13-2002

Hello:

I'm trying to run repquota -ag > /home/usersdir/repquota.txt as a daily cronjob at midnight, but the file always ends up blank.

I even tried writing a quick Perl script to e-mail me what running that command outputs, and it's nothing.

Can root run repquota as a cronjob? Do I have to do anything special?

Thanks for any help.
Peter.

Code:

01 00 * * * * /{directory}/repquota -ag > /home/usersdir/repquota.txt 2>&1

Hope that helps.
