Hi, furlan.  Yes, that's what was needed.  I had not understood that root 
didn't have access to its path when running the command in a cron job.  'Run 
now' worked, so hopefully, next time it runs as scheduled on Wednesday it 
should run without problems.

I do like the cron emails.  Such a comfort :-)
