cron entry change

[madra]

If, as root, I change another users cron entry, do I need to run a refresh for the change to take place ?

I edited a users cron, time change, and it still runs at the old time

thanks

Just force a save, should work

crontab -e ${USERID} >/dev/null 2>&1 << !X!
w
q
!X!

After you update the user's crontab, does it take effect? do you see the file with your changes? If not then I think Mike is right above! otherwise, i will go with /var full or / full!
