Description Wade Fitzpatrick 2008-01-02 05:29:37 UTC 
According to /usr/share/doc/vixie-cron-4.1-r10/FEATURES.bz2:

--      If it exists, the /etc/cron.d/ directory is parsed like the cron
        spool directory, except that the files in it are not user-specific
        and are therefore read with /etc/crontab syntax (the user is
        specified explicitly in the 6th column).

Vixie cron complains with this message in syslog:
Jan  2 12:40:01 helot cron[12522]: (*system*) BAD FILE MODE (/etc/cron.d/update_google_safebrowsing.sh)

but note it has nothing to do with file permissions.


Reproducible: Always
