re: correct use of root crontab

[Frank DiGravina <digravin@umn.edu>]

Hello,

I need some clarification.  I am trying to launch the following script 
called mrtg:

it looks like:

*/5 *    * * *    root    if [ -x /usr/bin/mrtg ] && [ -r /etc/mrtg.cfg 
]; then env LANG=C /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg.cfg 2>&1 | tee -a /va
r/log/mrtg/mrtg.log ; fi

It sits in /etc/cron.d.  The problem - it does not launch.  Is this the 
correct location.  The doc is confusing.


Thank-you.

Frank
