I have written a script that checks for the existence of a particular entry on the process table and then acts upon it accordingly. The script continuously loops and was activated using the "at" command - thus still running when the session is terminated. The only problem is it...
A bit late I know - but I ws just flicking through the old log. Personally I wouldn't use "tar" for system backups because in my experience "tar" often has problems when backing up system / special files. For that reason I would use "cpio" i.e
find / -depth...

What's the best way to convert a script into a daemon?
I've written a script which runs 24/7 in the background, I guess spawning and eating up processes. This seems to randomly spawn "core" dump...

As root I can execute rcmd to the HP server
The user "shaun" can execute rcmd to the HP server
On the HP server:
As root and "richard" I can execute remsh to the Unix server
The user "shaun" cannot execute remsh to the Unix server and gets the...

"crontab: error in message queue open: Permission denied (error...
