Periodic scripts are run from /etc/crontab - is that file present/correct? (Note: Don't install this crontab using the crontab command as you do for other users - /etc/crontab will be checked by cron automatically) Is cron running? Set cron_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf if not. The default is to make it run however, so this would only be needed if someome had altered /etc/defaults/rc.conf Andrew
