At all versions before /red Hat 4.2 5.1 6.2 etc, when crontab run any command send a mail to de user, if user of crontab is root send to /var/spool/mail/root, so we can edit and show all about command executed. Now we are install Red Hat 8.0 and crontab only send mail if there are any error at run command.
Example 1: run cp crontab -e 20 * * * * * cp /root/install.log /root/install.log.copy run ok the copy but dont send nothig to /var/spool/mail/root Example 2: run cpp (this command dont exist) crontab -e 20 * * * * * cprr /root/install.log /root/install.log.copy dont run the command and send to /var/spool/mail/root telling this command dont exist. Please Send me any solution, because we use crontab an mail to backup filesystems an show all is ok abount backup.
