It does have much in common with anacron, but anacron lacks one feature which would be very useful: the ability to get it to start running its jobs when commanded to. I do a fair amount of audio transcription, and system housekeeping creates too much of a load to allow it to record audio reliably. So I would sometimes like to sometimes get system housekeeping over with immediately. This is possible with anacron: log in as root; kill the instance of anacron started at system startup; then run "anacron -n". But it's rather tedious, and fcron provides tools to do this. So... Any info about fcron would be very welcome. jon -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
