Ubuntu :: Run From Cron Shutdown Command Restarts Server Instead Of Shutting It Down?
Jan 4, 2010I want my server to automatically shutdown at 23:59 and startup at 8:00. The startup is handled through by bios but the shutdown is to be managed through cron. I thought I had this working, I actually swear I had it working because I thought the uptime command showed the appropriate uptime. I happened to be up and was streaming a movie from my server when at the time it should've shutdown it actually just restarted. If I run the shutdown -h now command by itself it works well but the scheduled command just restarts the server. Here is the what is shown when I enter crontab -e.

Server :: Synchronizing /etc/hosts Files Across Multiple Servers?
Jun 16, 2011I have 16 linux servers that use /etc/hosts files to see and talk with each other. I'm adding servers to this pool of servers. It is required to do host resolution via the /etc/hosts files. DNS or NIS are not alternatives. Aside from manually editing each of the 16+ /etc/hosts files every time I add a server or editing one /etc/hosts file on one server then scp'ing it to all the other servers, is there anyway to edit the /etc/hosts on one server and "push" it onto the other servers that need the new /etc/hosts file?
Everywhere I've looked on the Net, there hasn't been any suggestion except for the options I mention here.
Or am I just whistling in the wind?

View 2 Replies View RelatedServer :: Ntpd - Time Server - Not Time Source ?
Jul 14, 2011I have a set of machines on a disconnected network. Periodically, one of the machines connects to the internet and synchronizes its time with a time server that is not known until the connection is established. (The machine queries a central command server for the address of the time server it should synchronize to.)
I then use a custom tool to do some calculations to call adjtimex() and adjust the clock so that it runs fairly accurately.
I know ntpd is supposed to be able to handle disconnected networks but I thought you had to preconfigure the servers in the configuration file.
My intent is to run ntpd on this machine (without configured "server"s) so that it can serve time to the internal network. (Periodic synchronization using ntpdate from the internal machine to the bridge machine.)
The problem: ntpd wants to fuss with the values I set using adjtimex(). I want it to quit thinking it needs to adjust the clock and just serve time to the internal network. (Maybe I have a GPS time source hooked directly to the machine!)

Server :: Cron Job Not Working?
Jun 1, 2011I have a cron job to run every 15 minutes. The cron job is running per /var/log/cron. It lists the job every 15 minutes.
[Code]...
I do not see any errors. I also looked in /var/log/messages for any errors and it does not list any. I added a line to the script that is running to send an email to me to see if it is running or not. When I run the script from the command line, the script runs without error and I get an email. I have searched and can not find what it going on. Is there some where else errors might be? Could there be a permission issue? The cron job is not being added by the root user.

Server :: Cron Job That Does The Backups?
Mar 21, 2010I have a crontab related question which I am hoping someone can answer. I recently took over a Redhat Enterprise 5 Server, and I was told by the previous Server Admin that there is a cron job that does the backups. I ran the following command to get a list of all users:
Code:
cat /etc/passwd | grep "/home" |cut -d: -f1
I then ran the following command for each of those users to see if they have any crontabs associated with them:
Code:
crontab -u USER -l
It doesn't show any crontab entries for any users (including root). But I am positive that there is a scheduled job somewhere because the backups are still running every night.
Server :: Get Cron Job To Pick Up ~/.my.cnf ?
Sep 2, 2010My question is how do I get a cron job to pick up the user's ~/.my.cnf? If the user runs the shell script, everything is fine. The cron entry has the same user run the job, and I've tried #!/bin/bash -l in the shell script with no success.
Here are the details:
I have a bash shell script that launches a Python program. The python program issues an external shell mysql -e command.
I don't want the python code to use use -u user-name -pMyPassword, db-name, because this is contained in ~/.my.cnf. The python code doesn't have to use these parameters if run interactively, but does have to if run from cron.
