subject: The Mystery of poll.

Hi Guys,
Merry Christmas and a question. Well There is something that screwing me up. Is
the poll I don't understand the mechanism. I have 5 different bash scripts for
each node I call each of them is:
--------------
#!/bin/sh
cd /home/bbbs
./bbbs bom create 2:250/1 +crash > /dev/null 2>&1 touch
work/rescan2.bsy
 --------------
I have a crontab like
 ----------------
crontab -l
*/10 * * * * /home/bbbs/mailin.sh
*/12 * * * * /home/bbbs/mailout.sh
*/20 * * * * /home/bbbs/poll-fido.sh
*/25 * * * * /home/bbbs/poll-fido1.sh
 */30 * * * * /home/bbbs/poll-fido2.sh
 */35 * * * * /home/bbbs/poll-fido3.sh
 */40 * * * * /home/bbbs/poll-fido4.sh
---------------
Mailin and mailout are as per Janis examples. The problem is that only
2 nodes are called when the cron start...for example I launch
./poll-fido.sh 2 different nodes are called ?!?!?!

What I am doing wrong?

Thanks

Tony
