Re: crontab

["W.Wolpert" <wolpert@vutura.de>]

Thanks very much - for the -B command - I hape it works from the crontab...

Where can I find commands like this - there is nothing in the doc?
I have some problems with the logging - I get no log updates even
if the log intervall is set to 60m (for example).

Is there a bug??

best regards
