   The Mystery of poll.

   Hi Guys,   
   Merry Christmas and a question. Well There is something that screwing me up. Is   
   the poll I don't understand the mechanism. I have 5 different bash scripts for   
   each node I call each of them is:   
   --------------   
   #!/bin/sh   
   cd /home/bbbs   
   ./bbbs bom create 2:250/1 +crash > /dev/null 2>&1 touch   
   work/rescan2.bsy   
    --------------   
   I have a crontab like   
    ----------------   
   crontab -l   
   */10 * * * * /home/bbbs/mailin.sh   
   */12 * * * * /home/bbbs/mailout.sh   
   */20 * * * * /home/bbbs/poll-fido.sh   
   */25 * * * * /home/bbbs/poll-fido1.sh   
    */30 * * * * /home/bbbs/poll-fido2.sh   
    */35 * * * * /home/bbbs/poll-fido3.sh   
    */40 * * * * /home/bbbs/poll-fido4.sh   
   ---------------   
   Mailin and mailout are as per Janis examples. The problem is that only   
   2 nodes are called when the cron start...for example I launch   
   ./poll-fido.sh 2 different nodes are called ?!?!?!   
      
   What I am doing wrong?   
      
   Thanks   
      
   Tony
