Cronie contains the standard UNIX daemon crond that runs specified programs
|
|
|
|
|
at scheduled times and related tools. It is based on the original cron and
|
|
|
|
|
has security and configuration enhancements like the ability to use pam
|
|
|
|
|
and SELinux.

By default this SlackBuild will include anacron in the package. If you
|
|
|
|
|
don't want this, pass ANACRON=no to the SlackBuild.

Note that Slackware has dcron - Dillon's Cron daemon. This package will
|
|
|
|
|
conflict with this package. It is advised to remove dcron before installing
|
|
|
|
|
cronie:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Stop the dcron daemon:
|
2013-06-21 04:00:35 +02:00
|
|
|
# pgrep crond
|
|
|
|
|
# kill <crond_pid>
|
2012-08-12 18:57:04 +02:00
|
|
|
Remove the dcron package:
|
|
|
|
|
# removepkg dcron
|
|
|
|
|
# rm -rf /var/spool/cron
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Slackware's boot script assumes that you have dcron and thus has to be
|
|
|
|
|
modified:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Change this line in /etc/rc.d/rc.M
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/sbin/crond -l notice
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/sbin/crond
|
