Is there a possibility to test, if cron is running? I tried something with roots crontab: >gecko:/home/roman# crontab -l >MAILTO=root@localhost >0,18,54,57 13 * * * test -e /usr/sbin/anacron
I thought, that the cron will e-mail me the failure of the line, but nothing happens. I looked at the syslog, and can't find an error. Cron is definitly started: >gecko:/home/roman# ps ax | grep cron > 494 ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/cron > 1233 pts/2 S 0:00 grep cron Is anacron started by cron? Because anacron is working... I recently have the problem, that my cron won't start anything which i entering in the crontab. A Linux without cron is really bad :(( Thanks, for any ideas!
