I got cron working as a daemon, but now it stopped working

It means that file is not a regular file.

I (jfong) owned the file. Should (*system*) own the file? Sorry, I
don't understand what it means when you say it is not a regular file?
What makes it Not Regular?
Is it a symlink?
cheers,

No, they are files not links
What does 'ls -l /etc/cron.d/cron.daily' say?
Oops, I deleted the files to get cron to start working again. I'll see
if the files get created again.
