Thanks for the app, but i have some trouble to make it work.

I was able to install all dependencies without much trouble and followed the wiki for fcron.

I configured the prey config with id both of device and account
I configured the fcrontab: */10 * * * * /usr/share/prey/prey.sh > /var/log/prey.log

now, i created an account on Prey website and set my device as missing to check if everything went fine.

Here is my problem, it seems that fcron does not start the prey script as it should. i do not receive any report.
If i manually start the prey.sh (using bash because i am getting error using sh), everything is fine and i receive the report.

I checked in top and have the fcron -b running

Did i miss something about fcron or do you have any idea why the report is not automatically generated?

Thanks in advance
