Maybe cron should be
After some online search I have also found some cron-like packages inside debian: * bcron = Bruce's cron system binary package sizes: 60 kByte + 8 kByte popcon = 25 Inst. upstream does not exist DM is active * fcron = cron-like with extended capabilities binary package size: 257 kByte popcon = 137 inst. DM seems to be less active upstream is very active: in Debian is version 3.0.1, upstream is 3.0.6! I would say the easiest way would be using fcron as replacement of cron.
