Am not getting the e-mail with output from script (NIGHTLY-PROCESSING.s) run from cron. Suspect another script (LISTEN-PTS.s) started as background task from cron script is holding things up. It's as if the script started in background is holding up the cron script from finishing. If I manually...

Anybody here been to this event before? If so, how was your experience? http://www.microfocusworld.com We are a Liant shop. I am interested in attending MFW in hopes of learning how MF will handle (or fold) RM/Cobol into their existing product line, but my general sense is that these things...
