Sorry, John, that's not quite right. Vixie cron should handle the |
10 |
/etc/cron.* directories automatically. |

Fcron, what I'm using, does not and requires additions to root's crontab to |
13 |
get them to work. |

To the OP, is a) vixie cron actually running, b) the scripts in the |
16 |
directories have the execution permissions, and c) any output in the log |
17 |
files indicating why vixie cron might not be executing them? |
