* Use pidfile(3) in cron(8).Pawel Jakub Dawidek2005-08-244-63/+29
| | | | | | | | | | Note, that when cron(8) cannot create pidfile, it'll exit. I didn't changed this behaviour, but its better to ignore errors other than EEXIST, so daemon can be started on systems where /var/ file system doesn't support locking (like NFS without rpc.lockd(8)).
