It shows that it's not running. I setup /var/log/cron.log and cron.daily 
isn't there for today. It ran on the 28th of this month but that's it. 
I've got other systems running Ubuntu Dapper and they work just fine.

I noticed that something was wrong after I installed LogWatch. I got an 
email once and that was it. That's when I started tracking down the 
problem. Which has lead me to cron.daily. Again, it's not running.
