SLES10 - cronjob issue?

I installed some software (zenworks linux management) and it apparently set up a cronjob for a postgresql database command. The job runs every 4 hours and fails everytime sending root mail... the problem I have is I cant find this job anywhere. ive looked in all the usual cronjob places but nothing related to that job and its driving me nuts that I cant find it.

anyone have any idea where to look?
/etc/cron* doesnt have it
/var/log/messages says it called from a cronjob but not who's or where from.
Ive checked the crontab for every user on the system.. the cron job is not found. crontab -l -u parsing against /etc/passwd

any ideas where i can find this?
