I have created few scripts also but they run once daily.I will check
the cron log also.

I am using Postfix and this machine is acting as Mail server for my
domain.I have Pix Firewall controlling my domain., so I am not much
worried about it.My main concern is cron logs.
The Postfix is also running as root means all the files in postfix
folder(/etc/postfix) are owned by root ,if i change the ownership of
those files to postfix(user as well as group) will it affect the
performance or working of Postfix.
Thanks & Regards
