Crontab is a flat ASCII file. It stays the same all the time unless edited. Sorry, but could you explain what you mean by 'taking a snapshot' of an ASCII flat file that does not change unless edited.

utmpdump

UTMPDUMP(1)						Linux System Administrator's Manual					       UTMPDUMP(1)

NAME

       utmpdump - dump UTMP and WTMP files in raw format

SYNOPSIS

       utmpdump [-froh] filename

DESCRIPTION

       utmpdump is a simple program to dump UTMP and WTMP files in raw format, so they can be examined.

OPTIONS

       -f     output appended data as the file grows.

       -r     reverse. Write back edited login information into utmp or wtmp files.

       -o     use old libc5 format.

       -h     usage information.

       utmpdump  can  be  useful  in  cases  of corrupted utmp or wtmp entries.  It can dump out utmp/wtmp to an ASCII file, then that file can be
       edited to remove bogus entries and reintegrated, using

	   utmpdump -r < ascii file > wtmp

       but be warned as utmpdump was written for debugging purpose only.

BUGS

       You may not use the option -r as the format for the utmp/wtmp files strongly depends on the input format. This tool  was  not  written  for
       normal use but for debugging.
