Also /etc/anacrontab contains: # These replace cron's entries 1 5 cron.daily nice run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily 7 10 cron.weekly nice run-parts --report /etc/cron.weekly @monthly 15 cron.monthly nice run-parts --report /etc/cron.monthly Unless I'm missing something it all looks right. BTW as I've also said before This is all identical to my desktop box which faithfully sends me a report every day. I remain perplexed. Thanks for the effort.
