- I can't seem to get the "at" command to work under IRIX 4.0.1 and 4.0.5,
- either as a super-user or normal-user. If I type:
-
- VGX 1> at 11:00am today test
- VGX 2> at 11:01 today test
- VGX 3> at 11:02 test
-
- where test is a file that contains the line "echo testing", I get
-
- >at: bad date specification
-
- every time. These appear to be legal according to the manual, and indeed,
- they work fine on other UNIX platforms. What's the scoop? I'm not listed
- in the /usr/lib/cron/at.deny file.
-
- Thanks in advance for any kindly advice,
