Hi,

I am running RHEL AS 3 update 4 on a HP Proliant DL380 G4.

Kernel version Linux 2.4.21-27.ELsmp #1 

I noticed the crond process was not running any more.

I checked the status of crond by typing:-
/etc/init.d/crond status
crond dead but pid file exist

Can anyone tell me what the above message means and why did crond
process stop running and what I can check to see what happened to crond
process?

I have managed to stop and start crond process fine.
