You need an already set up cron service for using mycron in a reasonable way. You need to set up your cronie\-, dcron\-, vixie\-, whatever\-crontab to execute mycron every minute for taking full advantage of mycron’s crontabs. +mycron is an alternative cron service/daemon. You need to start the systemd service unit or create a init.d file by yourself or simply start mycron manually for each user and run it in the background. .PP -mycron then replaces your regular crontab setup. It allows you to set up cronjobs in a completely new, but very convenient and standards compliant way and becomes your command center for managing, creating, editing and checking (multiple) crontabs. +mycron then replaces your regular crontab setup.
