chlawren · #1 (**permalink**) 02-02-2007

Hi,

We have had a situation where our informix cron had an entry changed, we rubn a checkscript that showed the changed at 23:50 however when the script was due to run on the new schedule 00:00 it didnt start and investigating the crontab the entry was removed?

any idea's where I can find some information on crontab edit changes?

Thanks

Unless you have auditing turned on, I think the users history files are your only hope.

he means the .sh_history file in users home directory

check for crontab -e or something like that

.sh_history has no entries for crontab -e
