No, anacron is not installed. In any case, the reboot appeared to clear the problem, at least when it comes to the use of 'crontab -e'. Once I got that working, I didn't bother to check again and see if perhaps "/etc/crontab" still has the problem with the timezones. Many thanks to everyone who provided assistance, especially Martin Dickopp who sent a few emails back and forth. ---------------- Nitebirdz http://www.sacredchaos.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
