Description Gerald Teschl 2000-11-21 07:27:33 EST

modutils require vixie-cron even tough anacron is as good.
Hence one cannot uninstall vixie-cron / crontabs and use
only anacron. (At least not in a clean manner).

Comment 1 Bill Nottingham 2000-11-22 00:16:42 EST

The modutils cron script is set to run every five minutes.
That's not something anacron should be used for, at least according
to the documentation.

Yes you are right, my mistake.
