I have installed Fedora Core 3 without any problems. I have added 2 tasks that run once a week to cron using crontab. Ever since the cron additions, I have received the following messages at 1 minute and 1 second past each hour in /var/log/messages:

Nov 13 17:01:01 itox crond(pam_unix)[4116]: session opened for user root by (uid=0) Nov 13 17:01:01 itox crond(pam_unix)[4116]: session closed for user root

There are no entries in /etc/cron.hourly. I have not seen this problem with either Core 1 or Core 2.

Does anyone know what could be causing these root sessions to open or where to look for a solution?
