RE: Cronjob

If I recall correctly, the reason I was editing the crontab in the first place was to unschedule whatever it was that was filling up /var. Oops.

And this happened back when I was doubling as the sysadmin, so I didn't really have anyone else to blame. :-) On the other hand, I didn't have to wait for someone else to restore the crontab from the previous night's backup; I just went and restored it myself. Ups and downs to everything, I suppose.

That's what the SA's are for. Restore please. They should have never let /var get full:-)

You'll lose your entire crontab if you do a crontab -e when /var is full?

(I've had this happen to me on HP-UX...)

crontab -e is bad!

1000 points if you can figure out why.
