I login as a regular user and then su to root. Use "service crond start" to start the crond deamon then logoff. But login again and use "service crond status", it displays that the pid exists but the process is no longer available. Looks like crond terminates after logging off. Question is, besides starting crond at boot time, how to start crond and let it run and able to logoff"? Thanks, Conway Chu Sr. DBA, Sys Ops Comcast National IP 1800 Bishops Gate Blvd Mt.
