Created attachment 362426 [details] emerge --info I am using pam_mount and LUKS for an encrypted home partition. Various invocations of frcontab as root (-e, -l) work, but a warning is issued about pam_mount being invoked with insufficient priviliges. root@server ~$ fcrontab -l 2013-11-02 16:54:09 INFO listing root's fcrontab # for fcron # $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/sys-process/fcron/files/crontab,v 1.3 2013/03/03 16:28:06 wschlich Exp $ # fcron: # This is NOT the system crontab! fcron does not support a system crontab. # to get /etc/cron.{hourly|daily|weekly|montly} working with fcron run # crontab /etc/crontab # as root. # NOTE: This will REPLACE root's current crontab!! # Global variables SHELL=/bin/bash PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin MAILTO=root HOME=/ # check scripts in cron.hourly, cron.daily, cron.weekly and cron.monthly 59 * * * * rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.hourly 9 3 * * * rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.daily 19 4 * * 6 rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.weekly 29 5 1 * * rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.monthly */10 * * * * test -x /usr/sbin/run-crons && /usr/sbin/run-crons (pam_mount.c:538): *** PAM_MOUNT WAS INVOKED WITH INSUFFICIENT PRIVILEGES.

> [...] but a warning is issued about pam_mount being invoked with insufficient > priviliges Do you get this warning on every command (like "fcrondyn -u root -l") from a fcron instance running as root? And please retry with latest sys-process/fcron-3.2.1.
Nope, just for fcron itself; see below. root@server ~ # fcrondyn -x ls ID |USER |SCHEDULE |CMD 2 |root |2017-08-20 12:50|test -x /usr/sbin/run-crons && /usr/sbin/run-crons 6 |root |2017-08-20 12:59|rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.hourly 5 |root |2017-08-21 03:09|rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.daily 4 |root |2017-08-26 04:19|rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.weekly 3 |root |2017-09-01 05:29|rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.monthly connection closed by fcron root@server ~ # crontab -l 2017-08-20 12:44:12 INFO listing root's fcrontab # for fcron # $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/sys-process/fcron/files/crontab,v 1.3 2013/03/03 16:28:06 wschlich Exp $ # fcron: # This is NOT the system crontab! fcron does not support a system crontab. # to get /etc/cron.{hourly|daily|weekly|montly} working with fcron run # crontab /etc/crontab # as root. # NOTE: This will REPLACE root's current crontab!! # Global variables SHELL=/bin/bash PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin MAILTO=root HOME=/ # check scripts in cron.hourly, cron.daily, cron.weekly and cron.monthly 59 * * * * rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.hourly 9 3 * * * rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.daily 19 4 * * 6 rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.weekly 29 5 1 * * rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.monthly */10 * * * * test -x /usr/sbin/run-crons && /usr/sbin/run-crons @mail(false) 12h /sbin/fstrim (pam_mount.c:538): *** PAM_MOUNT WAS INVOKED WITH INSUFFICIENT PRIVILEGES.
