Hi,
I'm very new to Unix so please bear with me...

Here is my requirement:
I need to create a cron job to run two different scripts at 1 a.m. every day.

Here's what I did:
I used the "crontab -e" command and created a crontab file using the vi editor.
When I exit the editor using :wq, the file is created in the /var/spool/cron/crontabs directory under my username.
Typing the command "crontab -l" lists the cron jobs.

Here's my problem:
When I type exit and log off, the cron jobs are stopped and the crontab file with my username becomes empty!!! When I log back on and type "crontab -l", nothing is listed.


Here's my question:
How do I create a crontab such that the cron jobs specified remain alive even after I log off?

System is Solaris 9.

Thanks a lot for any advice given.
