These days cron and anacron are run as services/timers by systemd.
root@hawk:~# systemctl list-units '*cron*'
UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB DESCRIPTION
cron.service loaded active running Regular background program processing daemon
anacron.timer loaded active waiting Trigger anacron every hour
nextcloudcron.timer loaded active waiting Run Nextcloud cron.php every 5 minutes
LOAD = Reflects whether the unit definition was properly loaded.
ACTIVE = The high-level unit activation state, i.e. generalization of SUB.
SUB = The low-level unit activation state, values depend on unit type.
3 loaded units listed. Pass --all to see loaded but inactive units, too.
To show all installed unit files use 'systemctl list-unit-files'.
