cron daemon

Hi All,

Anyone here are good at solaris?

I encounter a problem on a cron daemon. I tried to start the cron daemon (/etc/init.d/cron) but the daemon did not start. There is no new update on /var/adm/messages and also cron log file.
Any idea whats going on??

Re: cron daemon

/etc/init.d/cron start

You are using the startup/stop script
not the daemon directly when you use /etc/init.d
