Evening, Clint. I edited my cron.conf file as above to:
# 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] respawn exec cron -f 2>&1 | logger -t cronlogger and had gedit search the /var/log/daemon.log, but there were no mentions of chronlogger at all. Complete log from boot after changing cron.conf attached, hth.
