Steve,
You're right. When I initially went thru the examples I didn't see
anything except the exec command line. I've since found the script
function and how to resolve the problem.
I've modified the script as follows:
# cron - regular background program processing daemon
#
# cron is a standard UNIX program that runs user-specified programs at
# periodic scheduled times
description "regular background program processing daemon"
start on runlevel [2345]
stop on runlevel [!2345]
expect fork
respawn
script
. /etc/default/cron
exec cron $LSBNAMES $EXTRA_OPTS
end script
This seems to address the problem.
