I have a cron entry: */5 * * * * $HOME/bin/pinggate >> /dev/null Now, it runs every 5 minutes just fine and does exactly what it is supposed to. However, every time it runs, I get an email with the message: mesg: ttyname: Inappropriate ioctl for device What is this trying to telll me and how do I fix it? Script is included below in case it is something in the pinggate script.
