I got an email from cron this morning that needs some explaining. Here is a dcop connand _I_ can execute, no error /opt/trinity/bin/dcop kmail KMailIface resumeBackgroundJobs
But I put it in MY crontab and get this email Cron <gene@coyote> /opt/trinity/bin/dcop kmail KMailIface resumeBackgroundJobs From: Cron Daemon <r...@coyote.coyote.den> To: g...@coyote.coyote.den ERROR: Couldn't attach to DCOP server! I have other scripts to aid my incoming email that run as me, and use dcop to get their job done w/o a problem. But put the exact same command in MY crontab and its rejected. 2 questions, why?, and why is this email from root? Thanks for any enlightenment.
