+ help
+ dcron is a time-based job scheduler with anacron-like
+ features. It works as a background daemon that parses
+ individual crontab files and executes commands on behalf of
+ the users in question.
+
+ Upon installation, this package will enable a system level
+ cron daemon with hourly, daily, weekly and monthly crontabs.
+
+ However, it doesn't allow non root users to create their own
+ crontab file. This is because /var/spool/cron/crontabs is
+ non user writable.
+
+ Typically, a crontab group is created on the system and
+ users allowed to create crontab entries are added into this
+ group, while crontab executable is owned by root:crontab
+ with sgid bit enabled.
