Hi, Thanks - I'd consider this but how should I make it look at a different set of configuration files? I don't see a way to acheieve this.
I'm on Debian Testing, x86 (not that I'm limited to debian packages, but that's the cron I have installed. If I'm going to compile and install a different one then I might as well try to find something more suitable).
