[arm-allstar] Cron & SMS Screw Up....

[Doug Crompton]

John,

 Yes the AutoSky entry must be in there if you want it to work.

*/4 * * * * /usr/local/bin/AUTOSKY/AutoSky

Adding the MAILTO="" will cron from sending mail.  If you want to see if
autosky is running every four minutes after entering it in cron do
journalctl -f  and watch the messages.  Control C to exit.
