[K12OSN] rsync with multiple dhcpd servers -- scripting questions

[Millard Hill]

With just a cursory glance, I would suspect that the .bash_profile ENV
variables will need to be set in this script.  Whenever I would have
problems like that it was usually beacuse the environment variables are not
set when the script is run.  You can also put it directly into crontab and
set the environment variables before you set the time for the script to run.
