Crontab on Solaris 10

  • 772

I was trying to execute the following:

root@sol10 # /lib/svc/method/svc-cron
root@sol10 # /usr/sbin/cron: GenMacKey: not found

I would like to know how to generate GenMacKey.

Better still my crontab -r is returning,

root@sol10 # crontab -r
cron may not be running - call your system administrator
service cron solaris-10 sparc

  1. Well for the second problem, cron may be disabled. You can use the command:

    svcadm enable cron

    to reenable it.

    To restart cron you can use:

     svcadm restart cron
