Re: [webmin-l] Cron job

[Damien H. <dh...@di...>]

Here's what I got out of the webmin module

    /var/spool/cron

crontabs are kept in /var/spool/cron/crontabs

Oh!

Got it working =)

Fedora Core 3 has them in /var/spool/cron. Ubuntu has them in 
/var/spool/cron/crontabs which is not what webmin was looking for.

I mention Fedora because Webmin works fine under Fedora.

Thanks for the help.
