hey guys.. quick question.. thought I had this figured but i must be 
missing something

I have the following in /etc/crontab

0-59/5 * * * * root /usr/bin/mrtg /usr/share/toaster/mrtg/qmailmrtg.cfg 
2>&1 > /dev/null

I was under the impression that the "2>&1 > /dev/null" would quit crond 
sending root an email with the results of the cron job..

but I'm still getting mails every 5 mins.. how can I get it to just kill 
the output?

cheers

Craig
