cron not running?
Today, man informed me that its database was over 8 days old.
Investigating, I find that after the Y2K rollover, syslog is full of
messages like this:
Jan 2 07:30:01 localhost anacron[12334]: Anacron 2.1 started on 2000-01-02
Jan 2 07:30:01 localhost anacron[12334]: Job `cron.daily' locked by another anacron - skipping
Jan 2 07:30:01 localhost anacron[12334]: Job `cron.weekly' locked by another anacron - skipping
This did *not* happen in December.
Before I report this as a bug, I'm wondering if anyone else is seeing
this.
