Good day.

I can not set up cron. This is what I have as I tested it (I tried for daily 
only for now):

At 3:40 I put into /etc/crontab:
50 3     * * *    root  test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || (cd / && run-parts 
--report /etc/cron.daily )

in /etc/cron.daily I put file A with single line:
date > /tmp/cron-ran

At 3:50 I have checked /tmp looking for A file - but it is not.

As I do understand, the report of the run jobs should be put to /var/spool/cron 
or in /var/spool/cron/crontabs dir. (?), but it is empty.

So, what is wrong w/ my set up?


Thanks for Your time.
