cron job

In my var/log/cron file Im getting this error:

Mar 6 11:57:01 intranet crond[2286]: (tmp.XXXXGHJVjz) ORPHAN (no passwd entry)
Mar 6 11:57:01 intranet crond[2286]: (root) RELOAD (cron/root)
Mar 6 11:57:01 intranet crond[2286]: (tmp.XXXXFqiL6E) ORPHAN (no passwd entry)

Im not a pro bu I think the cronjob isn't running as the root user. How can I specify a cron job to run as root ?
