I received the following error on a Solaris 8 SPARC 2/04 release (117350-50 patch level) system:
> CMD: command > lntech 23415 c Fri Apr 25 10:34:00 2008 ! bad user (lntech) Fri Apr 25 10:34:00 2008 < lntech 23415 c Fri Apr 25 10:34:00 2008 rc=1
The user lntech is an LDAP account. The account is not expired, although I don't think this would matter (see SunSolve Document ID 204893). The user was added to /etc/cron.d/cron.allow, and could edit its crontab.
Restarting the cron daemon fixed the problem; sending the cron daemon a SIGHUP did not.
! SIGTERM Fri Apr 25 10:36:21 2008 ! ******* CRON ABORTED ******** Fri Apr 25 10:36:21 2008 ! *** cron started *** pid = 23433 Fri Apr 25 10:36:24 2008 > CMD: command > lntech 23440 c Fri Apr 25 10:37:00 2008 < lntech 23440 c Fri Apr 25 10:37:00 2008
