Hello Josh,
I have read the pkg-readmes of anacron. My /etc/anacrontab
file contains the following content:
# /etc/anacrontab example
SHELL=/bin/sh
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
HOME=/var/log
# format: period delay job-identifier command
1 5 cron.daily /bin/sh /etc/daily
7 10 cron.weekly /bin/sh /etc/weekly
30 15 cron.monthly /bin/sh /etc/monthly
Thanks for your reply
Manfred

You might have missed the OpenBSD-specific README that gets
installed with the package.
/usr/local/share/doc/pkg-reames/anacron
