Thanks for solving my problem, Mike!
Change /etc/cron.d/anacron to change when anacron is run regularly.

To recap, I am trying to find out where anacron is instructed to run
at 7 am(ish) every morning so that i may change it to 5 am.
Thanks for any help,
judith
In response to a listing of suggested places to look, I document the
