Hello,
It seems that we are experiencing different behaviours.
It there any test that we could run to try to identify where the
glitch is ?
By the way, nobody told me how to control anacron.
The installation day can no be considered as a normal way to
control an application !
UNTESTED!!
In /usr/share/anacron are 3 files (for monthly, weekly, daily)
that each contain a single 8 char line (YYYYMMDD). These look
like when each was run last. You could probably modify weekly
to match your view of when weekly 'should' run.
In may opinion, we should have an independent control of crond and anacron
ie. through /etc/crontab and /etc/anacontab
With just a few differences, then anacron and cron would be the same.
