if i have the following in my crontab:

05 0 * * * root /etc/something/crontab

and the /etc/something/crontab scripts takes longer than until 4:01 to finish.... will the scripts in /etc/cron.daily "wait" until /etc/something/crontab has finished ?

No.
ok.. thanks :) but how could i fix this ?

i have a tool which creates squid reports on a monthly basis. This Tool runs very long (depends how big the log file is for a month of data). If i start it at 0:05 everything is fine until 04:01 where the logrotate script is fired up... which logrotates the squid logfiles (if end of month) away, while the squid reporting tool still depends on it!

How can i solve this problem nicely ?

Thanks for the help

Marcel
