(OpenSuSE 10.3 with all updates to date) I'm trying to set up two cron jobs to run as 'root'. The jobs are to run nightly rdiff-backup backups. So far, the jobs are not running or, at least, my backup files are not updated. I used kcron to set up the jobs and the crontab (see below) looks ok to me. I'm at a loss as to how to proceed. Any comments or suggestions will be appreciated. Here's the crontab:
Earth-svr:~ # crontab -u root -l # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall. # (/root/.kde4/tmp-Earth-svr/kcronh31359.tmp installed on Sun Dec 16 16:12:33 2007) # (Cron version V5.0 -- $Id: crontab.c,v 1.12 2004/01/23 18:56:42 vixie Exp $) # This file was written by KCron.
