The cron log sems to be turned on by default in AIX 5.1 (unlike in AIX 4.3.3). This produces a large file in /var/adm/cron/log which has to be cleared down at intervals.
Is there a way of stopping this log being written to when each crontask is run?
Did you ever discover the cause of this problem? I also have a similar problem witha file system which I cannot unmount which is also losing free space. I believe that in my case the problem of loss of free space is connected with the inability to unmount the file system.
Thanks.I think you have something there. It could be changed permissions on a mount point, possibly caused by a crash. I cannot unmount it at present, so must wait for an opportunity to take down the application on this box.
Sorry, did not make myself clear. find just does not work under these users. It always comes up with the message as shown in question. It does not work on the home directory or any other directory/file system.
Thus: find /tmp -print of find /usr -print
gives:
pwd: The file access permissions do...
In 1 file system on an AIX 4.3.3 box, the users whose home directories are in this filesystem cannot use "find". "ls" works fine, but find fails with
"pwd: The file access permissions do not allow the specified action."
Any ideas?
