I have a problem on a osf 3.2 system concerning a cron job that I run as
root. If I do a 'ps -ef' from my terminal, I will get the full line
displayed as follows on one line:
root 4648 1 0.0 11:42:14 ttyp2 0:00.03 ksh
/u02/ross/hrpr56/hrpr/bin/hrrpc HRRPC2 /u06/ross56/hrt1/data
However, If I try to run the same command via 'cron' or 'at', it only displays:
root 4648 1 0.0 11:42:14 ttyp2 0:00.03 ksh /u02/ross/hrpr56/hr
The environment variable for TERM is vt100 for root.
Question:
Why is it truncated?
Where does root get its terminal type from and column specifications?
How can I get it to display the full line when submitted via cron?
Thanks in Advance for any help.
