Message-ID: <mvhDC8FJK.BE9@netcom.com> Organization: NETCOM On-line Communication Services (408 261-4700 guest) X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL1] Date: Mon, 24 Jul 1995 18:04:31 GMT Lines: 18 Sender: mvh@netcom16.netcom.com I used to run a bunch of port compiles using batch. Now when I try this, the jobs disappear from the batch queue without anything happening. Is something disabled? I of course run the batch files as superuser so that the port installs work. Also, the batch jobs, which work under a user account, don't seem to send mail as they once did. I left the machine running overnight, at I did not get mailed a daily report as the crontab file seems set up to do. 2.0.5 is a great improvement! I used to crash every 20 minutes under 2.0R, if I was beating up the system. Congrats to all! I am using the 2.0.5R CDROM. Thanks Mike Harding
