How to mail the output of a command in AIX
Hi,
I have mastered how to mail to Windows in AIX.
Can anyone tell me how I would mail the output command df -g to an email?
I want to set a job in cron to mail df -g as the contents of a mail.
Any ideas?
Thanks
John

I'm having trouble capturing output from the following command on AIX:
grpck -n ALL > error.out
It gives me the results on the screen but my file is blank.
I have no trouble capturing output from "ls > ls.out", but doesn't seem to work with the grpck command.
Any ideas?
Thanks. (2 Replies)
