I'm just wondering about cron stop and cron start. I saw a few sites still telling us to do this command to restart cron. Is this only valid for previous version of Solaris ?
I've never seen cron started or stopped that way. I don't recall with SunOS 4.1.x but I have worked with Solaris 2.5 up to 9 and never seen anyone use cron start or cron stop in the way you were trying to. Obviously, I don't know what version you are doing this on or had experience with.

I think the OP may have confused the start procedure with

/etc/init.d/cron start
/etc/init.d/cron stop
