Yeah it was done as a seperate line:

# Monitor services to make sure everything is still okay.
0,15,30,45 * * * * root /usr/local/sbin/swatch >>/var/cobalt/adm.log 2>&1

I looked at the pkg that René mentioned and it just adds the lines:

03,18,33,48 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.quarter-hourly
04,34 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.half-hourly
05 0,6,12,18 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.quarter-daily

I guess a Sun pkg may have deleted them at some point by mistake?

btw anyone know what the /etc/cron.d dir is used for? Mine is empty.

Cheers,
