Hmmmmm....

That's the right syntax; why is it trying to run "root" at a command?

Have you tried manipulating any cron jobs manually?  How?

Can you send us a copy of your /etc/crontab file?  It shouldn't be more
than a few lines long.



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

# run-parts

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

# Monitor services to make sure everything is still okay.
