Try running it through dos2unix. It smells a bit like you have

it with a Windows machine and it contains wrong line delimiters.
Not quite it, but apparently there was some garbage in there
somewhere. I re-typed it, & it now works.

I stand corrected. It *is* a little counter-intuitive, though, to have the
file descriptors modified AFTER the redirection.

So I can either put " /dev/null 2>&1 " in the script itself or I can put
it at the end of the crontab file such as this:

This is backwards. You needs to redirect stderr before redirecting stdout:
foo 2>&1 > /dev/null
Or, the MAILTO line in the crontab can be tweaked (it works in a top-down
fashion):
# Mail results to [EMA
Yes...it's cron. To stop it from mailing you, add this to the end of the
line in root's crontab:

Cron will send you output from programs that it runs. Close cout/cerr, or
redirect output to /dev/null in your script.
I created a backup script that copies our NT Server data drive to our
Redhat box running samba. All works fine except my root email account
gets a 1.2 MB email sent to it every night. This will hog disk space.

Here is the text of the scripts that I use that works pretty well. The backup script
says what to dump. The dodump script determines where it ends up by the BACKUPDIR
variable. I have this set up to a network share that goes to tape later but this
could be anything. This does full on Sunday
Look into cron. Add a line like the following to /etc/crontab:
00 2 * * 6 root /path/to/my/script.sh
You will need to write a script that executes the backup operation. As
soon as you modify the file, the setting changes are noticed by crond.
Make sure your script is executable (chmod 755 sc
