Hi,

I have a jail ran by cbsd which has a cronjob like this:
* * * * * root /usr/local/directadmin/dataskq

I see every minute this error logged in /var/log/messages:
cron[71002]: setpriority 'root' (daemon): Permission denied

I see in ps xau that it runs but at nobody user

even when loggin to the jail I have:
cron[68825]: setpriority 'root' (daemon): Permission denied
login[68900]: setpriority 'root' (root): Permission denied
jexec[69404]: setpriority 'root' (root): Permission denied

# uname -a
FreeBSD j5.sody.com 12.3-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 12.3-RELEASE-p1 GENERIC  amd64

what am I missing?

Sami
