cron only processes /etc/crontab and the user crontab files. The hourly, daily, weekly and monthly directories are handled by entries in crontab, but there is no such entry for cron.d - when would you expect it's contents to be run? Move any scripts you want run to the appropriate timed directory. -- Neil Bothwick Those who live by the sword get shot by those who don't.
