Having trouble with Cron

[Ed Curtis <e_curtis@homes2see.com>]

Maybe someone can help out with this. I have a bash script I run at 1am 
every morning via an entry in cron.d. It records an echo in a file when 
done so I can record it running. The trouble I'm having with it is that 
it's recording that's it has completed about once a minute from the hour 
starting a 1 am until 2 am!. I'm not sure it's actually running that 
entire time. I can't imagine that it would run exactly for a perfect 
hour then stop. If I run the script by hand it only takes a few minutes 
and records only one entry into my log file.

In /etc/cron.d/backuppublishers I have....

* 1 * * *       root    /bin/backuppublishers

The script is an rsync routine and an echo to my log file.

Thanks,

Ed
