Description Dmitriy Bogun 2009-09-09 13:23:50 UTC

I got unexpected behavior of atop's cron's sript installed into /etc/cron.d - it don't work.

After investigating I see that ebuild patch installed cron's script(cut of user from scrip should be started). As I understand problem related only to vixie-cron.

I have try to fix it. Now I will attach my solution.

vixie-cron is slated for removal.  Does this apply to other cron implementations in Gentoo?
