Laptop is running stable/8 @r240161; the above was easy enough to
hand-edit, so I did, then:
d134(8.3-S)[3] pgrep cron ; sudo service cron restart; pgrep cron
1676
Stopping cron.
Starting cron.
3649
d134(8.3-S)[4] ps axwwl | grep -w cron
0 3649 1 0 47 0 3396 1368 nanslp Is ?? 0:00.00 /usr/sbin/cron -s
1001 3652 3575 0 44 0 3508 1240 piperd S+ 14 0:00.00 grep -w cron
d134(8.3-S)[5]
Looks as if it works -- at least, it certainly has the same default
behavior. :-}
Thanks!
Peace,
david
