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
