scheduling the cron jobs with the use of operands

Is it me or is the attachment missing?

Thanks,

Attachments don't seem to be working...the post is rejected without comment when I add an attachment.

Here is a link where you can download the file:

ftp://ftp.sourcedirect.com/contrib/mtr

Actually after some testing - it looks like only picture extensions are allowed to attach.

I will open a thread in the Feedback area about it.

Thanks,

Shalom,

The best way to make a two script process have step two wait for step 1 to be done is to control it with a single script.

script.ksh
!#/usr/bin/ksh
echo "Steve was here"
rc=$?
if [ $rc -eq 0 ]
then
echo "Ready to run second process"
# insert second script name here, full path
else
echo "First step failed. Do not pass go, do not collect $200"
fi

It turns out that only PC-safe files are allowed as attachments...that is, abc.txt is OK but abc is not. The Lithium engine 'adds' the extension .wht to a no-extension filename. So my mtr script is presented here as mtr.txt. Feel free to rename it to a more Unix-like filename.
