    I created a script that requires one argument. When I run the script from
    the command line as root, my output appears as expected. When I run it from
    cron however, my output is not as expected. It is a TSM script that gathers
    information and outputs it into a file. From the command line, it shows me
    how much data has been backed up, from the crontab, it just shows zero in
    each column.

    Thus far, I am looking at this as a cron issue, not a TSM issue so I asked
    it here. If this is the wrong place for it, my apologies.

    Thanks in advance,

    Drew
