Ctrl+D is a better way to close the file actually. If you mean EOF,

*say* EOF?
Unless you type it one time too much, and ... uupps, there goes the shell

Which is why I have 'set -o ignoreeof' in my ~/.bashrc.
Perfect!
Thanks.

Or you could set the IGNOREEOF environment variable.
And you don't like ^D? Then stty can change EOF to some other sequence.
I recieved some advice about not having a network drive attached to the
profile I was logging into so I uninstalled cygwin and installed it
with an account that does not have a network share included with the
login.
After this I setup cron using cron-config.
I selected yes to netsec if that is okay. I have a general idea of what
netsec is but don't know how it pertains to this problem.
Is this what all of you guys are saying this file should look like?
sys-scheduler@backup /
$ more cronmail.sh
cat > /cronmail.txt
I keep getting this in the eventvwr:
The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( /usr/sbin/cron ) cannot
be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry
information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote
computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this
description; see Help and Support for details. The following
information is part of the event: /usr/sbin/cron: PID 2624:
(sys-scheduler) RELOAD (tabs/sys-scheduler).
My crontab looks like this:
5 * * * * /croncheckscript.sh
The croncheckscript.sh looks like this:
sys-scheduler@backup /
$ more croncheckscript.sh
echo are_you_working >> cronoutput.out
My Permsiions look like this and this :-[ thing still wont' work?
sys-scheduler@backup /
$ ls -al
