That makes a lot of sense.

Hmm...but I still had problems.  May I suggest that if you detect that
if the old /etc/cron.monthly exists on upgrade that you could warn the
user?  Maybe with one of those messages that emails the user?  That way
other people won't get bitten by the same thing?

Just an idea.

Thanks again for your hard work. :-)

Ciao!
