Topic: mondo backup - cannot use it as cron job

[aussie]

Ive installed mondo - its GREAT: used it to restore to a larger drive!

BUT it will not work under cron: I found something that says it can work under an 'except wrapper' but I have no idea what that means.

My cron refers to a script, which I know executes because it includes a 'date>>{file}' line that processes.
The full scripts works in foreground - but the mondo line does not effect when called by cron!

My mondo use is 'mondoarchive -Oi -d /{dir} -E /tmp -E  /{dir}/mindi -F .

Any help would be appreciated (Im on 5.6 going to 6.0.1)
by the way if anyone has not noticed the -s parameter changes the size of the iso output(s) eg -s 4700 for DVD.
