Xenix cron is haunted!!!

[Mark J. Bailey]

Hello Netlandders,

Here is an interesting one....

I have Xenix 2.3.0 on a Tandy 4000 80386.  I have used cron extensively
for many years.  I had setup cron to run the idleout program supplied with
2.3 xenix.  Originally, I had setup the timeout period to be 45 minutes.
Recently, I changed that to 2 hours.  I update both my /etc/defaults/cron
file and the crontab entry for root.  I even stopped the current idleout
process to purge any reminants of the 'idleout 45'.  Well, at the top of
every hour, idleout 45 is run by cron ... even though it is not there!!!
It also runs it under the uucp id, not root.  There is no hint of idleout
in the uucp cron entry, nor in any of the programs that the uucp cron file
calls (uudemon.*, etc).  I even reset the machine, and still, after a while,
it will run idleout 45 under the uucp id.  The durn thing is haunted!!!

Any information leading to the exorcism of my cron would be *most* 
appreciated.  I am at wits end.  I may be blind, but I simply cannot figure
where it is coming from.  Please email responses.

Thanks in advance.

Mark.
