Seems a little too much of a coincidence that you would have cron fail the day after that update. Have you tried... rpm -q --qf "%{name}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE} %{INSTALLTIME:date}\n" vixie-cron ...to see if/when you updated it (the current version is vixie-cron-4.1-20_FC3 ) rpm -Vv vixie-cron ...to verify that the package installed correctly from the update. If all that is OK, then try installing the old package off the CDs to see if makes the problem go away. If so, then perhaps you have something to bugzilla. -- Brian Ashe - CTO Dee-Web Software Services, LLC. http://www.dee-web.com/
