<font size="+1"><tt>What's in </tt></font>dxspider.chk? That is
likely to be a shell script. That's probably what you will need to
modify with a >/dev/null 2>&1 . Also sticking it in cron
is what the problem actually is. It will be creating a file of the
console output for the mailer to send to you. If there is no mailer
then that file will just get bigger and bigger.<br>

This may give you some options as a replacement:<br>

But I shall be switching off console output (by default) from all
variants of DXSpider tomorrow and they will be available in git.
I'll put out a message on here when it's done.<br>
