    hello:

    i am getting the following message when the cron.hourly jobs are invoked. but
    not on the daily or weekly. (a month has not passed, so i don't know if the
    monthly run will have the problem.)

    interestingly enough, there are no files in /etc/cron.hourly.

            /bin/bash: line 1: root: command not found

    the /etc/crontab file is as follows:

    SHELL=/bin/sh
    PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
    MAILTO=root
    HOME=/

    # run-parts
    01 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.hourly
    02 4 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily
    22 4 * * 0 root run-parts /etc/cron.weekly
    42 4 1 * * root run-parts /etc/cron.monthly

    any ideas are welcome. thanks in advance.
