2. How can I switch it on/off ?
The crun job as defined in "/etc/crontab" executes the script "/usr/lib/cron/run-crons". Reading it, I see it ignores scripts with extensions .rpm, .swap, .bak, .orig or ~ (you may add any new one you like). Otherwise, if you simply remove the excutable flag of the particular cron.daily (or weekly, monthly, etc) script you want to skip, it will not run. Interestingly, all are (or should be) skipped if it is a laptop without AC power.
3. Where is the Docu for that one ?
Just read the scripts. :-)
4. Who (UID) executes the stuff ?
root. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
