Hi All,

Since upgrading a server to 28 from 27, I can not find
my root's cron file.  Mind you, all the jobs are still
firing off like they should.

Did the cron files get moved?

Uhm, no. They should be in the /etc/crontab file, in the /etc/cron.d
directory or in /var/spool/cron and named after the user who owns them.

Remember that the format of the commands in /etc/crontab or in the
/etc/cron.d directory are different than those in /var/spool/cron.

Ah poop!

I thought I was in /var/spool/cron but was actually
in /var/log/cron.

You think you see what you see.

Thank you for the help.

Yes I discovered the difference between /etc/cron.d and
/var/spool/cron format about a year ago.  I did a bit
on head scratching at the time.
