example contents of monday.sh (755):
#!/bin/sh
rm -rf /cygdrive/M/ # M is a persistent, network mapped drive
cp -Rv /cygdrive/D/IBM /cygdrive/M/
cp -Rv /cygdrive/D/ar /cygdrive/M/
When I login the next morning, there is nothing in M:\
However, if I run these scripts manually, they work just fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks -
Gabe
