It's the other way round -- anacron executes the cron jobs. cron jobs normally are run around midnight, when your desktop pc usually is turned off. So they don't get executed at all. Anacron tries to start these jobs as soon as possible (e.g. the next morning you are turning on your computer) Is anacron really up and running?
