Hello, I am a bit surprise by the answers that I received. Again, cron and anacron used to run quite well for a long time. Both can co-live, one run periodically according to /etc/crontab and /etc/cron.daily /etc/cron.weekly, etc... and anacron could make the relay, in case that the machine was turned off. Why give up this logic?
Now, we have /etc/crond.d with 0hourly raid-check /etc/cron.hourly with 0anacron /etc/cron.daily/ seems to be ignored Where is the logic? =========================================================================== Patrick DUPRÉ | | email: pdu...@gmx.com Laboratoire de Physico-Chimie de l'Atmosphère | | Université du Littoral-Côte d'Opale | | Tel.
