Install the cron package. This contains crond, the cron daemod, and crontab, the program used to manipulate the per user files in /var/lib/cron/crontabs which scedule jobs on a regular basis. This is used to do system backups during off-peak times and a myriad of other system maintenance tasks that must occur on a regular basis. Do man crontab for more detail. > > I also got an error while trying to setup x-windows. It said package > cpp was not installed. I haven't been able to find this package.
