Re: run-parts not running cron.daily?

It turns out that this is caused by moving a shell script (with a .sh
extension) into the run-parts directory. Run-parts won't run filenames
with dots in them. If this is documented clearly anywhere, I couldn't
find it, but removing the filename extensions fixed the problem.
