[ILUG] Crontab question

[Padraig Brady]

Lookes like duff chars in your crontab.
telnet on doze just shows "black boxes" for chars
it can't display. To see what the characters are
if your interested, do:
crontab -l | od -tx1
This will give you the ascii values which might
give you some idea of what happened.
