Hi,

I do not find personal crontab file. how do I create it ? crontab -e says
my personal file is not there

If I want to run it as root then how do modify the following code as it is
nor working ..
-------------------
#!/bin/bash

mkdir -p /home/USERNAME/org/backup && \
find $HOME -type f -name '*\.org' ! -path "/home/USERNAME/org/backup/*" \
    -exec cp -t /home/USERNAME/org/backup/ \{\} \;
echo "Daily Org Files Backup Successful: $(date)" >>
/home/USERNAME/mybackupOrg.log
-----------------------------


Thanks
