Tom,
try the following:
1) become root and type "crontab -l"
That will list out the commands in root's cron.
Since you are seeing the error message mailed to you from Super-user,
I suspect that root has an entry for trying to run dostats. You can
remove that invocation.
2) Become the ldm user and type "crontab -l"
You should see that LDM is running dostats even though you show it commented
out in the list below. This is where is should be run, and apparently is.
I have looked at our stats mail logs and see that address@hidden is
the user we are receiving stats from, eg:
Oct 7 09:35:02 laraine.unidata.ucar.edu sendmail[21882]: JAA21882:
from=<address@hidden>,
size=1361, class=0, pri=31361, nrcpts=1, msgid=<address@hidden>,
proto=ESMTP, relay=byron.ca.uky.edu [128.163.192.2]
You can edit your crons directly with:
setenv EDITOR vi (or your prefered editor)
crontab -e
The listing you show below I suspect is not the same as what you are actually
running.
