Greets all;
I just changed /var/spool/cron/crontabs/gene so its owned by me again, but
I am still being denied crontab -e permissions. Probably because
/var/spool/cron/crontabs is also owned by root:root. But since that
directory contains ALL the crontabs, I can't just willy nilly change that
to, so I am reduced to scratching my thinning hair and muttering WTF?
???
Thanks.
Cheers, Gene
