Thank you dear friend. I did the changes you told me.
So, I did remove "root" and say crontab -e as root but
nothing changed. it kept sending mail saying that it
cannot find mrtg directory...BUT there is one..
I also copied the run.sh scritp to the parent folder.
and now crontab -l gives:
*/5 * * * * /usr/local/www/run.sh
and i get now THIS mail:
>N 1 root at BSD.e-global.gr Thu Oct 20 12:35 23/874
"Cron <root at BSD> /usr/local/www/run.sh"

Subject: Cron <root at BSD> /usr/local/www/run.sh
X-Cron-Env: <SHELL=/bin/sh>
X-Cron-Env: <HOME=/root>
X-Cron-Env: <PATH=/usr/bin:/bin>
X-Cron-Env: <LOGNAME=root>
X-Cron-Env: <USER=root>
env: mrtg: No such file or directory
I also checked the /etc/crontab and there is nothing
more than the default in there, as well as
/usr/src/crontab.
Any suggestions?
