Good Morning!

I'm in the process of converting all of our servers from BSD/OS. One of 
the things that I've always done is to copy all of the jobs from 
`/etc/crontab' to root's crontab so that all of the system jobs are in 
one place. FreeBSD's cron doesn't seem to like this, however. I'm seeing 
a lot of "not found" errors. I tried adding...

PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin ; export PATH

...to the beginning of root's crontab but this does not work. Is there a 
central location at which I can specify a path? `/etc/login.conf' would 
be my first guess but the default path already contains the required 
directories.

Thanks!
Scott
