[cobalt-developers] Is there anything better than cron?



Hi all,
  I've been using the crond to run a bunch of scripts at different intervals: eg. every minute, every six minutes, once every hour; and every now and then the cron process will just die and disappear. All my entries are correct in /etc/crontab and when the crond is up and running all the entries are executed correctly but unpredictably the crond process dies every now and then.

  Anyone know why this would happen and also if there is anything better than crond?

PS: I'm using Qube3 with 2.2.16C27_III kernel.

Thanks in advance.
