Hello,
I am having a problem w/ a new RHEL 4 box & crond.
I have a user who has created some cron jobs, but the do not run.
The error I see in /var/log/cron is:
crond[2888]: (username) ORPHAN (no passwd entry).
Now, I know that this error typically means that a file is installed in
/var/spool/cron for a username that doesn't have an entry in
/etc/passwd.
True, this user doesn't have an entry in /usr/passwd. This user is
authenticated via NIS.
Is this error a result of the /etc/pam.d/crond file? If so, how do I
tell PAM to check NIS too?
Thanks,
Aaron
