Fcron is a periodical command scheduler which aims at replacing
Vixie Cron and Anacron.
Fcron works well on systems that are not continuously running such
as laptops or desktops and it is loaded with features.
When a machine is powered on, Fcron can start jobs that were
skipped while the machine was powered off.
Installation notes:
-------------------
Group fcron and user fcron must exist before installation.
So as root do this:
groupadd -g 289 fcron
useradd -u 289 -g fcron -d /var/spool/fcron -M -s /bin/false fcron
Post Installation notes:
------------------------
The Fcron installation creates a startup file called /etc/rc.d/rc.fcron
To run this startup file automatically at system startup time,
add an entry to the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file:
# start fcron as a replacement for cron
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.fcron ]; then
. /etc/rc.d/rc.fcron start
fi
