cronjob problem


Now I have this major problem (reason why I am checking cronbjobs). I am getting tons of emails regarding some eggdrop of some sort. I am not sure why because that is disabled (or should I say prevented) in WHM (checked) as running processes.

I ran cronbtab -e again and got this:


2,58 * * * * /usr/local/bandmin/bandmin
0 0 * * * /usr/local/bandmin/ipaddrmap
15 2 * * * /scripts/upcp
*/15 * * * * /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/bin/dnsqueue > /dev/null 2>&1
*/5 * * * * /usr/local/cpanel/bin/dcpumon >/dev/null 2>&1
0 6 * * * /scripts/exim_tidydb > /dev/null 2>&1


/etc/cronbtab shows this:


SHELL=/bin/bash
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
MAILTO=root
HOME=/

# run-parts
01 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.hourly
02 4 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily
22 4 * * 0 root run-parts /etc/cron.weekly
42 4 1 * * root run-parts /etc/cron.monthly

How do I track this bad crobjob doewn exactly?

Using Fedora Core 2 i686

The next step would be to check the directories
Quote:
/etc/cron.hourly
/etc/cron.daily
/etc/cron.weekly
/etc/cron.monthly
and see whether there's anything in there
that resembles eggdrop.


Cheers,
Tink

I don't have any on file (the user did not reply to me with that). Anything else we can do?
