Hello Dexter, please don’t CC me as I am subscribed to the list (unless you want your mails to end up in /dev/null). It’d also be helpful if you refrained from top-posting and learnt how to quote properly. Dexter Filmore <Dexter.Filmore@gmx.de> wrote: > Yes, indeed, that's what triggered it.

"crontab -l" only gives the content of root’s crontab (usually located with the other user-specific crontabs in /var/spool/cron/crontabs/). However, cron also runs the commands specified in /etc/crontab as well as those in the directories /etc/cron.d, /etc/cron.daily, /etc/cron.weekly and /etc/cron.monthly (with the obvious meaning). crontab -(l|e) is really only meant for user-specific stuff, whereas system administration should be configured in /etc/crontab and the various directories. Best, Claudius
