Hi all,

I have the following...

In the crontab:
1-59 * * * * /echo_the_date.ksh >> /echo_the_date.log

In /echo_the_date.ksh:
#ksh
/bin/date

In /etc/syslog.conf:
*.*;cron.none   /var/log/messages

My question is, why do I still get  this logged into /var/log/messages?
Mar 23 16:52:00 DOUG /USR/SBIN/CRON : PID 4844 : (doug) CMD
(/echo_the_date.ksh >> /echo_the_date.log)

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance!

-doug
