I have executed each script there manually, and they all seem to run fine. Last night I emptied cron.daily. This morning everything was fine, no hanging system. In mail to root (from yesterday, when the system was hung up in the morning) I find the entries: Trying to re-exec init open(/dev/pts/0): No such file or directory (repeated 5 times) Obviously my system is telling me what's wrong. Anyone out there able to translate? Thanks. Jim Ford
