Thanks for the reply. I want to get detailed cron reports in a log
file. crontab -l just lists the cron entries for a certain user.

Do I need to set up AIX auditing for this? If so, can someone please
give me an example stanza on how to accomplish this.
Mag,
Do you just want to know what jobs are in the cron tables? I assume you
want more than just "crontab -l" or viewing the files in
/var/spool/cron/crontabs...

from cron man page:
CRON_Start Lists the name of each job, whether the job was initiated by
an at or
cron command, and the time the job started.
CRON_Finish Lists the user's name, process ID of the job, and the time
the
processing was completed.
See "Setting up Auditing" in AIX Version 4.3 System Management Guide:
Operating
System and Devices for more details about how to properly select and
group audit
events, and how to configure audit event data collection.
the aix5 man page has this added:
The cron daemon creates a log of its activities in the
/var/adm/cron/log file. |
