Hi Robert, thanks for the patch. Anyway, I'm not sure if "getent" is available on all unix platforms. So IMO it's better to use the old script. Or knows anybody if "getent" is also available on SunOS, FreeDSB, AIX, ...? Thanks, Martin Edenhofer -- ((otrs.de)) :: OTRS GmbH :: Norsk-Data-Str. 1 :: 61352 Bad Homburg http://www.otrs.de/ :: Manage your communication! Robert Kehl wrote:
Hello all!
I've written a patch to Cron.sh to actually allow using the OTRS_USER option. Additionally, enumerating the available cron jobs gets improved. The patch is attached and available under: http://wiki.robertkehl.de/index.pl?PatchImproveOtrsCron
With kind regards,
Robert Kehl
