Cron Errors
I am receiving an error from my mail server. In the body of the message it says:

/etc/cron.daily/tmpwatch: error: failed to open /etc/mtab for reading

I get this error message every morning at 4:02am.

I checked the rights on mtab and root has all rights...cron is run as root also.

Does anyone have any ideas? Please help.
