Subject: Re: Crontab logs
Are you certain Cent6.6 has cron enabled? Many modern systems don't any
more since cron is going away once you transition to SystemD. In SystemD,
whether a process starts and stays running, runs once and quits, or runs
periodically, you simply create a unit file, and optionally a timer. So...
don't just assume cron is running, it may no longer be started by default.
CentOS7 will use SystemD.
