Crontab

[Anon]

First off I know this isn't a UNIX forum, but most of the people who post are pretty all knowing, so I figure someone can help.
I'm trying to write my crontab to execute a script every 2 minutes. From the command line I enter 'crontab .crontab' to tell cron to use .crontab.
<----The contents of my .crontab file---->
/2 * date cron.sh
<----END---->
From the man pages this should work correctly, but does not run the script. The script runs fine with no errors from the command line: ./cron.sh
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Flinn

try specifying an absolute path in the crontab

I can only assume your crontab is somewhere in /etc and from what you've got there, it'll try to find /etc/cron.sh

I could be wrong though...........
