G'day all...

I'm wanting to set up some automated tasks (backups) via crontab.

I found that root has an empty crontab, but /etc/crontab has things in it. 
(Mainly run-parts so that the cron.d directories run.)

I editted /etc/crontab, and it had no effect - I take it I have to run 
crontab as a certain user to implement the changes.

Which user's crontab is /etc/crontab, or what steps do I need to take to 
implement changes applied to /etc/crontab?

Thanks...

Mike
