Hello, I get always the error message > (root) AUTH (crontab command not allowed) in my logs. I interpret this that root is not allowed to run crontab. But my cron.allow contains the root user: > cat /etc/cron.allow > root So root should be allowed to run crontab, shouldn't it? The rights on the files should be ok, I think: > -rw-r--r-- 1 root crontab /etc/cron.allow > -rwxr-sr-x 1 root crontab /usr/bin/crontab > drwx-wx--T 2 root crontab /var/spool/cron/crontabs/ In my opinion, I get the warning since I have installed checksecurity. But tiger seems to work good and weekly. (I installed checksecurity at the same time like tiger.) I have read the manuals and searched for the problem in the net. But I did not found an answer. I am using cron version 3.0pl1-100 and Debian/Linux 4.0 AMD64. What can I do to solve the problem? Best regards Kay
