- anacron for DEBIAN
- ----------------------
-
- Anacron runs transparently to the system. In other words, you should never be
- aware that anacron and not cron is actually running cron.{daily,weekly,monthly}.
-
- Anacron itself however is not a daemon, so it will either be called at startup,
- on APM power status change, or by cron. Disabling those will result in some
- jobs not being executed on time.
-
- Anacron leaves messages in /var/log/syslog and /var/log/messages by default.
