Feature changed by: Michal Seben (mseben) Feature #309015, revision 2 Title: Cronie as default cron - openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed + openSUSE-11.3: Candidate Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Michal Seben (mseben) Description: Currently there is no chance to push our ~20 patches to upstream (it's already dead), so my suggestion is : switch to cronie. See prepared simple wiki page about this step. See http://en.opensuse.org/Cron_replace + Documentation Impact: + * we will have anacron and audit support + * we will use /usr/sbin/crond instead of /usr/sbin/cron - this change + should not be problem (causes only small init script correction) + * see syscrondir.diff we will move to 600 permissions rule, for each + crontab file (/var/spool/cron/tabs/username) + * old 'crontab' command called without args prints message with usage + options and do nothing, new crontab from cronie waits for input on + stdin (waits to enter your new crontab rule) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309015
