So the question is. How do I exactly create items in crontab because the
-e option is giving me a lot of grief *smile*.

Thanks,
Sina

Sima,

If you create items in crontab when you are logged on as root, those
items will execute even when you change to a normal user. No problem.
The only time I create an item in crontab for a nomral user is when that
item needs to modify one of that user's files for some reason.
