Space is not the issue , space came when I copied it here!


I discovered it

I discovered the reason of cron audit problem. job failed


Reason is :

With auditing on there's an additional file /var/spool/cron/crontab/root.au that crond uses to set the audit flags. If you run the crontab command when you're logged into the system in a way that can't be properly audited, like via ssh, the values in root.au are set wrong and your cron jobs will fail.

To avoid the crontab interruption

Log into the console and run crontab -e then save it and all should work fine ..

Our main issue:

Our main issue why there is conflicting between crontab , auditing and ssh


I'm still investigating any one has idea in this regard , Pls advice …
