cronjobs aren´t started at all

[dotdoms]

Hello,

I own a server which is administered by DA.. now I went to user level and filled some cronjobs, but I got the problem, that those jobs aren´t even running at all obviously, since I don´t get any feedback from the jobs (neither error mails nor any positiven feedback in the meaning of the script doing what I want).

Basically the scripts I wanna run for cronjob are working - tested that out on putty.

now I wonder is there any way to check, wether the cron daemon is working? Additionally to that, can I view somewhere the crons that I creat by user-level in DA?

I mean I have been looking at etc/cron.daily, etc/cron.houry, etc/cron.weekly, etc/cron.monthly as well as on crontab in /etc/, but I hadn´t been finding any where those cronjobs I created beforehand...

thx in advance

The cronjobs are usually located in /var/spool/crond.

Do NOT edit them using an editor. You can use an editor to look at them, but if you need to edit them you need to run the special cron edit command.
