thanks for the responses to my question. I learned from them. My problem
was that I was directly editing the /etc/crontab file instead of using
the crontab command correctly. Once I figured out how to create a cron
job in a separate text file and then add it to the crontab with "crontab
config_text.cron", it worked fine.
thanks for your help.

A follow up:
I fixed the PAM errors by running:
apt-get install pam_krb5
my crontab script, however, still will not run.

Hello,
I have a script that works great when I run it from the command line,
but doesn't work at all when added to crontab. The strange part is
that /var/log/cron shows the job running:
Sep 26 03:39:01 cono crond[25241]: (root) CMD
(/etc/cron.3min/mail-restart.sh)
However, the log shows some other errors that may have something to do
with it.
PAM adding faulty module: /lib/security/pam_krb5.so
(root) CMD (/etc/cron.3min/mail-restart.sh)
PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_krb5.so)
PAM [dlerror: /lib/security/pam_krb5.so: cannot open shared object
file: No such file or directory]
However, other cron jobs run just fine. So I'm not sure what is the
problem. Any help in figuring this out would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
