So is there a program or script named "awstats" which is in a crontab? Let's say you have this job running every day at 2:30 am.

Code:

2  30  * * * /usr/local/bin/awstats

If you want it to only email you when there's a problem, just do this:

Code:

2  30  * * * /usr/local/bin/awstats >/dev/null 2>&1 || echo "awstats failed to complete"

This does require that the script exit with a non-zero condition upon an error. Do you have a way of testing this?

LEARN ABOUT NETBSD

weekly.conf

WEEKLY(5)						      BSD File Formats Manual							 WEEKLY(5)

NAME

     weekly, weekly.conf -- weekly maintenance

DESCRIPTION

     The /etc/weekly script is run, by default, every Saturday morning on a NetBSD system.  The /etc/weekly.conf file specifies which of the stan-
     dard weekly services are performed.

     The variables described below can be set to ``YES'' or ``NO'' in the /etc/weekly.conf file.  The default settings are in the
     /etc/defaults/weekly.conf file.  (Note that you should never edit /etc/defaults/weekly.conf directly, as it is often replaced during system
     upgrades.)

     rebuild_locatedb  This rebuilds the locate(1) database, /var/db/locate.database, which must also exist, in order to be rebuilt.

     rebuild_mandb     This rebuilds the apropos(1) database /var/db/man.db, using makemandb(8) with the -f option.

     rebuild_whatisdb  This rebuilds the whatis(1) database(s).  Note that NetBSD provides a default whatis.db for the system manual pages and
		       this may not be needed.	(Adjust your /etc/man.conf as necessary; see man.conf(5) for details.)

FILES

     /etc/weekly	weekly maintenance script
     /etc/weekly.conf	weekly maintenance configuration
     /etc/weekly.local	local site additions to /etc/weekly
