Having a strange occurrence where the service 'cron' fails to startup following 
normal reboots.  Here's some info.

chkconfig cron   displays 'cron on'

mikecc1:/etc/init.d # service cron status
Checking for Cron:             unused

mikecc1:/etc/init.d # service cron start
Starting CRON daemon     done

mikecc1:/etc/init.d # service cron status
Checking for Cron:             running

After reboot:  status is back to unused

mikecc1:/etc/init.d # chkconfig --list cron
cron                      0:off  1:off  2:on   3:on   4:off  5:on   6:off

When I attempt to chkconfig cron off,  I get this:

Mikecc1:/etc/init.d # chkconfig cron off
insserv: warning: script 'S01ITMAgents3' missing LSB tags
insserv: warning: script 'S01dsmc.client' missing LSB tags
insserv: warning: script 'ITMAgents1' missing LSB tags
insserv: Default-Start undefined, assuming default start runlevel(s) for script 
`ITMAgents1'
insserv: warning: script 'dsmc.client' missing LSB tags
insserv: warning: script 'ITMAgents2' missing LSB tags
insserv: Default-Start undefined, assuming default start runlevel(s) for script 
`ITMAgents2'
insserv: warning: script 'ITMAgents3' missing LSB tags

Not certain if the warnings are causing the cron service to fail on reboot.  

ANY ideas would be most appreciated.

Mike
