I was having some problems with dcron randomly shutting down.  I

unable to create /var/spool/cron/crontabs/michael.new: File exists


The problem is that I can't delete the file because it doesn't actually
exist.

How do I get rid of this annoying error?

Out of interest - have you tried creating the file, possibly with dcron permissions? Sound's like a badly written error message.
