Not realizing this had already been done, I started to look at this the other night. Surprisingly, I came up with almost exactly the same changes as Rich, except I only used "/var/run/cron" instead of "/var/run/CRONFIFO".
I also came up with a couple of issues that need to be considered with this: 1) Man page update; since man pages have been released as part of ON yet. 2) When a patch is generated to install this, it will need to make sure it shuts down cron, deletes the /etc/cron.d/FIFO file and then installs and restarts cron. Otherwise, there will be an orphaned named pipe lying around the /etc filesystem. -spp This message posted from opensolaris.org
