You have no doubt encountered the wonders of anacron, which, instead of running things when you want them run, runs them at some random time. You used to be able to just remove anacron from your system, but now it has been improved so much that it is tightly integrated. You have to move everything from /etc/anacrontab to /etc/crontab (and reformat it properly since they aren't the same syntax), then to really make sure you drive a stake through its heart, cat /dev/null to each of /etc/cron.d/0hourly /etc/cron.hourly/0anacron /etc/anacrontab (and repeat following every update in case an update reinstalls them :-). -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
