[Systems] Fwd: [Systems-logs] Cron <root at sunjammer> test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.weekly )

[Samuel Cantero]

I checked the script and it is fine. The problem arise when the user is not
present in the LDAP database. Therefore, the account doesn't have shadowMax
field as the script complaint. For instance, the user "german" only exists
in the /etc/passwd file.
