System Backup

Never noticed this before, but I have it to backup on the 2nd and 21st of every month, or to the point I thought I had. However, it backs up every 2 days.

Have I got the Day of Month wrong?

Something is wrong somewhere. How do I know, because you've got day of week set to 0, which means that this cronjob should only run on the 2nd and on the 21st (you wrote 24th, but the day in your image is clearly 21), but only if either falls on a Sunday.

Find the cronjob in your shell login, and post it.

That's just it, I can't find any cron for the admin backup..

So, should the Day Of Week be an asterisk?

On my CentOS systems admin backups are in the /var/spool/cron/diradmin file.

If the day of the week is an asterisk, then the backup should run on the 2nd and on the 21st, no matter which day of the week those dates fall on.

Can only see my reseller backups in /var/spool/cron/crontabs/diradmin <shrugs>
