 8646 ?        SN     0:00 run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily
 8651 ?        SN     0:00 /bin/sh /etc/cron.daily/checksecurity

yet, i think it should at 4:25am if i have my fields correct:


SHELL=/bin/sh
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin

17 * * * * root  run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly
25 4 * * * root test -e /usr/sbin/anacron || run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily
47 6 * * 7 root test -e /usr/sbin/anacron || run-parts --report /etc/cron.weekly
52 6 1 * * root test -e /usr/sbin/anacron || run-parts --report /etc/cron.monthly


why is the daily cron running at 7:30am?

thanks,
pete
