Hi,
Just updated a few servers to U7, and rebooted them. I found out that crond would not start at boot even if it is configured to:
crond 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
I have tested another reboot, same thing: I had to start crond manually.
I don't see anything in the logs, and I don't have direct access to the console right now.
Anyone seen the same thing?

I must also say this server hasn't been rebooted for a while, but since I saw there was an update of vixie-cron, I thought this was the problem.

Try "refreshing" the startup scripts:
# chkconfig --del crond # chkconfig --add crond # chkconfig crond on

I doubd it would help,
[root@server rc3.d]# ll /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S90crond lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Mar 23 21:59 /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S90crond -> ../init.d/crond
[root@server rc3.d]# ll /etc/init.d/crond -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1904 Mar 15 12:25 /etc/init.d/crond
But I'll try it anyway later on.
