Hello, I'm trying to understand the reason of using unix socket to poke cron daemon via crontab. If we would remove this feature from the cron then the functionality will be the same, I mean the cron would update the database because modification time of the SPOOL DIR will be different. Cron will also get the new data even when we delete the /var/cron/tabs/.sock.
This maybe is a silly question but I dont quite get the idea of having unix socket in cron for reload. -- Pozdrawiam Tomasz WaÅaszek
