>Description:
Cron puts its logfiles in an awkward place, that is, in the default place were Vixie
put it, and that place is awkward not the logfile itself. Well, actually the
log is awkward as well, but that is a different issue.


>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
mda11:root# diff -C3 syslog.conf.orig syslog.conf
