Cron Allow

Some Linux distributions don’t turn on cron automatically for users. To give certain users access to cron, add them to cron.allow.

Edit cron.allow.

$ sudo nano /etc/cron.allow

$ sudo nano /etc/cron.allow

Add one user per line.

About Me

I'm Ulysses, a Cloud Engineer at Cardinal Health based in Columbus, Ohio. I’m a certified AWS Solutions Architect. This website is my way of documenting the things I have learned in the Cloud. When off the grid, I enjoy riding my electric skateboard. I have surfed, snowboarded and played the saxophone in the past. I hope you will find this site helpful. It's powered by WordPress and hosted in AWS LightSail.
