Playing with crontab and can't get the entry to execute.
Cron running, top shows

crontab -l shows

Crontabs file under
/var/cron/tabs
shows
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall.

The 'timestamps' script is
#!/bin/sh
date >> cronout
and it will execute from the command line.
Permissions are
-rwxr--r-- 1 fwc fwc 27 Mar 7 18:13 timestamps*
I've even tried restarting the machine.
She no work. Ideas?
