But which of these lines related to which task?

Thank you.

Read man crontab

The first five fields mean:

1. minute 0-59
2. hour 0-23
3. day of month 1-31
4. month 1-12 (or names, see below)
5. day of week 0-7 (0 or 7 is Sunday, or use names)

So "00 23 * * 1" means your task runs on Mondays at 23:00.
Assuming that the excerpt from your log file is from this year, Monday would be Dec. 12th, which is not shown in the logs.

How can I sure cron executed properly?

If a cron task writes output, that output is send as an email message to (by default) root.

So is you want to be sure that a task was executed successfully, you can do something like:

Code: Select all

00 23 * * 1 /usr/bin/suricata-update && /usr/bin/echo "surricata-update done"

Then root will receive an email that ends with the text "surricata-update done" when the task completed.

Can I store it as a file instead of email?

Thus, not executed? Is syntax wrong?

As pjsr2 wrote:

You can also check your expected results as well as logs (/var/log/messages /var/log/cron).

I edited commands. How can I check email?

[pjsr2]

Log in as root and run command:

Code: Select all

mail

mail is a bit old fashioned text based mail client. See the man pages for how to use it.

Thank you.
