Thanks. It has been so long since I had to do a reinstall to correct a problem, I couldn't remember how involved or not the archive and install is.
I may give that a try and see what happens, but as I mentioned, thanks to Automator, I am able to get the job done without SD's built in scheduler.
Cheers.
UPDATE: I tried to run an archive and install but it failed at the end being unable to import user settings? Anyway... I ended up having to do a clean install and used Migration Assistant to move my apps over.
Guess the root of this schedule problem involved more than just that screwed up cron job.
Oh well... I would have had to deal with this when I tried to update to 10.6 anyway. Just as well I spent the 4 hours now rather than later.
Cheers.
