SUMMARY: cron problem

Once again, thanks to everyone here for your help.

Dan Dunn pointed out correctly that:

        1 * * * * = every 1 minute past the hour (ie: 1:01, 2:01, 3:01 ... etc.)

where

        * * * * * = every minute

This was a little confusing (you have to admit it seems that way)... but as
I was reading this message,
SunSolve called and agreed. Though, of interest, they said they've had
some other long-standing
problems with cron that haven't been resolved (what those are?).

Thanks again to everyone, I appreciate your assistance.

Forrest
