"1 * * * *" in your crontab will only run on the first minute of every
hour, not every minute.  If you want it to run every minute, change your
"1" to "*".

It sounds like your problem is logcheck.sh is located somewhere else on
your system.  /usr/local/etc/ was the default location when I installed
Portsentry.  You just need to locate yours and change the path in your
cron job.

try this:

locate logcheck.sh
