Hi. I am trying to compile cron for the 3b2-400 and

on the 3b2-400 after boot up it complains there is corruption
in the crontab for every user lp, sysadm, root and so on.

Does anyone have these libraries? Thanks.
At first I thought the el_ code was editline code but that doesn't make
sense in cron, but then I found the General-Purpose Event List Manager.
See
https://www.tuhs.org/cgi-bin/utree.pl?file=SysVR4/cmd/cron/elm.c
and
https://www.tuhs.org/cgi-bin/utree.pl?file=SysVR4/cmd/cron/funcs.c
Does your cron source come with this other code?
By the way, how to browse the SysVR4 code at TUHS?
