Is there a way that I can capture a shell script (both output and input) to a log file where I can analyze it?
Thanks

I have the following line in my script:
$sftpcmd $rmthost <<COMMANDS>> $sftplog 2>&1
For some reason this is not capturing the errors from sftp, they go to the file attached to the cron entry
ie
mm hh dd MM * /myscript > cron.out
any idea why?

arbtt-recover
ARBTT-RECOVER(1) Program references ARBTT-RECOVER(1)
NAME
arbtt-recover - tries to recover a broken arbtt data log
SYNOPSIS
arbtt-recover [OPTION...]
DESCRIPTION
arbtt-recover tries to readsthe data samples recorded by arbtt-capture(1), skipping over possible broken entries. A fixed log file is
written to <file>~/.arbtt/capture.log.recovered</file>. If the recovery was successful, you should stop arbtt-capture and move the file to
<file>~/.arbtt/capture.log</file>.
As a sid effect, arbtt-recover applies the log compression method implemented in version 0.4.5 to the samples created by an earlier
version. If you have a large logfile written by older versions, running arbtt-recover is recommended.
OPTIONS
-h, -?, --help
shows a short summary of the available options, and exists.
-V, --version
shows the version number, and exists.
-i, --infile
logfile to use instead of ~/.arbtt/capture.log
-o, --outfile
where to save the recovered file, instead of ~/.arbtt/capture.log
FILES
~/.arbtt/capture.log
binary file, storing the arbtt data samples
~/.arbtt/capture.log.recovered
binary file, storing the fixed arbtt data samples
