Package: cron Version: 3.0pl1-100 Severity: important
When there is a broken link in /etc/cron.d cron does not recognize when this link is resolved again. How to reproduce: # echo '* * * * * root /bin/true' > /root/true # ln -s /root/true /etc/cron.d/true then you see in syslog: /USR/SBIN/CRON[16671]: (root) CMD (/bin/true) # mv /root/true /root/true.break the message in syslog: /usr/sbin/cron[3967]: (*system*true) CAN'T OPEN (/etc/cron.d/true) now rename the file back # mv /root/true.break /root/true (nothing in syslog, cronjob is not executed) Thanks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
