I've lost my root cron job on Sco Openserver 5.0 - can you help?

Post by John Air » Fri, 20 Feb 1998 04:00:00



Can anyone email me a copy of the default cron job that runs as root on
Openserver 5.0. Not only is it no longer running, but the original file has
gone AWOL.

I would very much appreciate a copy, as our root  filesystem is getting in
a mess, and I may have to reinstall (which I don't know how to do anyway as
I didn't install it in the first place).

Thanks.

1. Help: I've Lost Root Login

In trying to upgrade COL 1.3 Samba from 1.9.18p8 to 2.0.3 suddenly I am no
longer able to login as root.  I've tried resetting the root passwd, and
can su to root, but this way, I can't even pick up root's mail....  

Meanwhile, the upgrade of samba did not appear to complete.  Some things
are installed,  like swat, but smbd -v returns "1.9.18p8".  I tried setting
"Unix Password Sync" to Yes in global swat properties and resetting the
smbpasswd and passwd but that didn't fix the root login.  I also tried
removing the root: line from shadow and passwd files directly and
resetting, no dice.

Help, please, I'm at a loss to fix this, I don't know what the attempted
upgrade has changed, nor how to chage it back.

Samba upgrade went like this:

smbd stop
nmbd stop
cd ../samba-2.0.3/source/
./configure
make
make install
make clean
<no error reports>
