    How is the script started every 10 minutes? By cron? Commented Mar 31, 2018 at 23:11
  • Thanks for your response ... I am going to meet with the administrator on Tuesday, to get some more answers. Is there some way to check this cron? Commented Mar 31, 2018 at 23:16
  • in the etc directory there appears to be a cron.d, cron.hourly, cron.daily etc.. Commented Mar 31, 2018 at 23:20
  • It seems this script is started by cron in this manner: /path/to/script > /path/to/kiltslog.txt or /path/to/script 1>/path/to/kiltslog.txt. One more thing is necessary for redirect to several files is using tee (copy stdout to stdin or file(s). For example: /path/to/script | tee /path/to/kiltslog.txt /path/to/another_file.txt | 1>/dev/null. Commented Mar 31, 2018 at 23:26
  • See in /etc/crontab too. Maybe it's located there. Commented Mar 31, 2018 at 23:30
