Description Werner Macho 2004-01-13 08:49:20 UTC

Code listing 2: Installing a cron daemon

# emerge --usepkg vixie-cron
# rc-update add vixie-cron default
(Only if you have chosen dcron or fcron:) # crontab /etc/crontab


AFAIK the package is called vcron .. or am i wrong ?
nothing special but annoying to find out

Nope, we've renamed the package to vixie-cron. The name vcron remains until the 2004.0 release but will be removed further onwards iirc.
