Oh yeah? That file DID NOT exist until I ran kcron yesterday morning to generate some scheduled work for root. In fact, kcron crashed the first 2-3 times I ran it because it was missing. I finally touched it, and this was then written by kcron: ---------------- SHELL=/bin/bash PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin MAILTO=root HOME=/ # run-parts 1 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.hourly # 2 4 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily # 22 4 * * 7 root run-parts /etc/cron.weekly # 42 4 1 * * root run-parts /etc/cron.monthly # This file was written by KCron. Copyright (c) 1999, Gary Meyer # Although KCron supports most crontab formats, use care when editing. # Note: Lines beginning with "#\" indicates a disabled task. ------------------------------ The above has absolutely nothing to do with the jobs I needed done, but that files is dated yesterday morning while I was working in kcron. I've been running FC6 for about a week now. Where it went I have NDI, but this was a fresh install on a formatted drive, so theres something a bit odd if it wasn't installed. -- Cheers, Gene -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
