No, last message there is from January. Well this is a server that was previously administered by someone else. The fact that /var/log/messages didn't work made me investigate a bit more, so I figured I can change syslog.cong adding this line: cron.* /var/log/cron After restarting syslogd /var/log/cron is working again. But notice that cron logging worked fine before the update! So now here is what's happening: /var/log/cron shows this Sep 18 03:01:00 server CROND[8790]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly) Sep 18 04:01:00 server CROND[12260]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly) Sep 18 04:02:00 server CROND[12461]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.daily) Sep 18 04:02:00 server anacron[12465]: Updated timestamp for job `cron.daily' to 2002-09-18 Sep 18 05:01:00 server CROND[14198]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly) However I'm sure that cron.daily is not executed. For instance, there is a slocate.cron script in /etc/cron.daily, but /var/lib/slocate/slocate.db has a timestamp "Sep 12 04:34" which is when I made the update. -- Poslano preko SmartNet webmaila. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
