Hello all! Please help to understand where can be a problem. I had a following process list at the morning. Such things happened from time to time. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 22799 ? SW 0:00 \_ /USR/SBIN/CRON 22801 ? S 0:00 \_ /bin/sh -c test -e /usr/sbin/anacron || run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily 2>&1 | mail -s "[Log]" 22808 ? S 0:00 \_ run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily 23051 ? Z 0:00 | \_ [exim <defunct>] 22809 ?
