RE: [gentoo-user] Vixiecron not working all the sudden

Okay I'm beyond annoyed.

Every day at around 3:00AM is when cron stops working until I reset it
manually.

What actually causes the cron.daily stuff to run?! How can I disable it
temporarily??

/etc/crontab only removes some touched files it looks like

"You had me at EHLO" --E.Webb (10.04.05)
