thanks for the patch.
You're welcome, as always, dear Martin :)
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, ...?
I implemented getent as a luxury feature and have no problems with hard coding the HOME, as I remember 'getent' to be 'lusers', f.e. Another improvement is the use of 'find', which i believe to be available everywhere: find $CRON_DIR ! -name *.dist ! -name *.rpm ! -path "*/CVS/*" -type f Well, determining the necessary dirs/files to not go through was only a side effect, though: The main reason I worked on Cron.sh was the erraneous behaviour to determine the OTRS user stated on the command line. This would be this part: -if test $CURRENTUSER = root; then +if test "$CURRENTUSER" == 'root'; then + if test "$2" == ""; then echo "Run this script just as OTRS user! Or use 'Cron.sh {start|stop|restart} OTRS_USER'!" exit 5 + else + su - $2 -c $0 $1 + exit + fi fi Btw, I'm reworking the restore.sh script now, which does not work in the current state.
