Nothing. > Did you try running incrond with --foreground? OK, that shows two problems. With peter@joule:~$ incrontab -l /home/peter/test IN_MODIFY touch indicator the result is root@joule:/etc# /usr/sbin/incrond -nf /etc/incron.conf touch: cannot touch `indicator': Permission denied touch: cannot touch `indicator': Permission denied and is fixed by giving a legal path to indicator. peter@joule:~$ incrontab -l /home/peter/test IN_MODIFY touch /home/peter/indicator The 2nd problem is more subtle. peter@joule:~$ incrontab -l /home/peter/test IN_MODIFY touch /home/peter/indicator 2>&1 gives root@joule:/etc# /usr/sbin/incrond -nf /etc/incron.conf touch: cannot touch `2>&1': Permission denied touch: cannot touch `2>&1': Permission denied touch takes an arbitrary number of file name arguments. How can its output and errors be redirected? Thanks, ... Peter E. -- Telephone 1 360 639 0202.
