I've installed epylog, which worked extremely well under FC3, but hasn't
worked under FC4. It runs through cron daily, and every morning I'm greeted
with this error message;-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/etc/cron.daily/epylog.cron:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Can anyone tell me what it means and how to resolve it please?
Hopefully thanks
Sharon.
