If it's not, then someone's inserting things into my /var/log/cron!

>/usr/sbin/cron[56345]: (root) CMD (/usr/local/Backup/scripts/bkup-daily)

Kidding...yes it's running:
root at server# ps ax | grep cron
  472  ??  Is     0:02.20 /usr/sbin/cron -s
57450  p0  R+     0:00.00 grep cron

Thanks

May be a really dumb question here, but like all technical problems, start
with 
the simple stuff:

ps ax | grep cron   ????

Is cron even running?
