salam,
just realized, that crontab is almost empty on one of my clean x86 11.0 systems (all current onlineupdates applied).
affected system looks like:
SHELL=/bin/sh PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/lib/news/bin MAILTO=root # # check scripts in cron.hourly, cron.daily, cron.weekly, and cron.monthly # -*/15 * * * * root test -x /usr/lib/cron/run-crons && /usr/lib/cron/run-crons >/dev/null 2>&1
on some other system i dont have this problem. there are several cron.daily, hourly, monthly and weekly or something lines. who and when do these lines get created, and how can i get them created?
also grep for crontab in /var/log/messages only displays lines when cron gets started or restarted. Mar 16 11:29:52 linux /usr/sbin/cron[3479]: (CRON) STARTUP (V5.0)
the other system displays all those starts of hourly, daily, weekly and monthly.
Well, look at the other crontab entries: $ ls /etc/cron.* /etc/cron.d: novell.com-suse_register seccheck smolt # variable tabs /etc/cron.daily: logrotate suse.de-backup-rc.config suse.de-check-battery suse.de-cron-local suse.de-update-preload suse-texlive suse-clean_catman suse.de-backup-rpmdb suse.de-clean-tmp suse.de-updatedb suse-do_mandb # daily jobs /etc/cron.hourly: # hourly jobs /etc/cron.monthly: # monthly jobs /etc/cron.weekly: # weekly jobs Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
