For some reason I cannot fathom,
cron.hourly runs twice each hour
on one of my two CentOS-5.4 systems,
as reported in /var/log/cron:
-------------------------
Mar 16 14:01:01 helen crond[27833]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly)
Mar 16 14:01:01 helen crond[27834]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly)
-------------------------
On the other it just runs once, as expected.
-------------------------
Mar 16 13:01:01 althea crond[23373]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly)
Mar 16 14:01:01 althea crond[23553]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly)
Mar 16 15:01:01 althea crond[23695]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly)
-------------------------
This doesn't have any bad effect,
but it does run the scripts in /etc/cron.hourly twice.
I just wonder if anyone has come across this curiosity?
Or can suggest any possible cause.
