Having been spoiled by Vixie Cron I was not aware until yesterday that older cron daemons, found in Solaris and AIX, do not automatically reread cron tables at regular intervals. Thus if you edit crontables using CF's edit files method older cron daemons will not pick-up the changes. What to do? I did try sending a HUP signal to an AIX cron daemon yesterday but that did nothing. How do others on this list handle cron edits?
