From: Israel Garcia on 14 Dec 2009 12:20 Is there any centralized managed cron daemon for debian where I can manage crontabs from other nodes? -- Regards; Israel Garcia -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I hesitate to admit it, but I have Webmin running on my hosts (with some consideration of connectivity in the packet filters). Maybe not exactly what you're looking for, but it does a pretty good job administering crontabs from a central location. -- Glenn English ghe(a)slsware.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Hi Glenn, The problem is I don't use webmin at all.. so I'm looking for something easier than installing webmin in more than 200 nodes...:-) thanks for your answer. regards, Israel. > > -- > Glenn English > ghe(a)slsware.com > > > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org > with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Consider Puppet and bcfg2. -dsr- -- http://tao.merseine.nu/~dsr/eula.html is hereby incorporated by reference.

What I want is something to manage all crontabs (from domUs) with some centralized daemon. I'm getting terrible performance with IO when all guests run their crontab (at the same time) at 6:25 AM. thanks Dan regards Israel. > -dsr- > > > -- > http://tao.merseine.nu/~dsr/eula.html is hereby incorporated by reference. > You can't defend freedom by getting rid of it. > -- Regards; Israel Garcia -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
