Crontab

Hi,

Please help me with this problem

ls -lia /etc/cron.allow ; cat /etc/cron.allow
4787289 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7 Nov 28 17:42 /etc/cron.allow
oracle
su - oracle
crontab -e
cron/oracle: Permissão negada

As root user can edit and create files to the user's cron Oracle

drwxrwxrwt 7 root root 4096 Nov 28 17:56 tmp
drwxr-xr-x 14 root root 4096 Set 25 12:23 spool
drwx------ 2 root root 4096 Nov 28 17:50 cron

Someone has any idea?

Thanks

A little excerpt from the crontab man page (section 1) which - maybe - is related to your problem:

Quote:

Note that su(8) can confuse crontab and that if you are running
inside of su(8) you should always use the -u option for safety's sake
