Since you can't edit crontab entries using the crontab (or fcrontab as it were) program, once you edit the appropriate files, you need to restart the cron daemon.
This can be accomplished by typing /etc/init.d/fcron restart Normally, when you use the crontab app on a unix box, after the edit is complete, it restarts the cron daemon automatically.
