I've just noticed that cron.daily, etc, do not seem to be running on my CentOS-5.4 system. The scripts in /etc/cron.d/ all run fine, but those in /etc/cron.hourly, etc, seem to be ignored. I see that according to /var/log/cron these commands are seen, eg Feb 28 18:01:01 helen crond[6680]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly) but none of the scripts in this directory seem to be touched.

When I use windows 'cut & paste' to copy a file to the 'Linux' drive the last modification time of the file is altered. How can I prevent that (and keep the last modification time unchanged) ? thanks, Tal
