Cron stops openSuse 10.2
openSuse 10.2. chkconfig has cron "on". Boot the system, service cron status shows "unused". service cron start shows "running". exit out of root, su back in, service cron status shows "unused" again. Same problem on hundreds of systems (because all from the same image, naturally). Not sure if it was always this way or if I just noticed it. With this version of the O/S it is cron, instead of crond. google searches not enlightening. ideas to pursue?
Resolved - 10.2 does not support the @reboot option. |

Thanks for the tips, I'll try those. Turns out the problem isn't cron @reboot, it's something in the job that turns cron off. I'll figure that out.
