I just want to share my system-wide fcrontab:
$ sudo fcrontab -l systab
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
!nice(15)
!noticenotrun(false)
!serial(true)
%hourly 0-30 run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly
%daily * * run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily
%weekly * * run-parts --report /etc/cron.weekly
%monthly * * * run-parts --report /etc/cron.monthly
I use fcron's capabilities to execute the files in
/etc/cron.{hourly,daily,weekly,monthly}/ once within each period.
