SBackup does not backup changes daily as set in the Schedule. If I click the "Make a backup now" button it runs and creates a backup.
I have attaqched the log generated when I boot up the machion and it doesn't do a backup, and the log generated when I click teh "Make a backup now" button.

Thank you very much for reporting this issue. Unfortunately your attached log is not complete. Please add a *full* log of both a successful and failed backup run here.

Please also run this command from a terminal:

ls -lah /etc/cron* > ~/cron_settings.out

and add the output file 'cron_settings.out' from your home directory here. Thanks.

I figured out the sbackup log I thought was teh boot log file was actually the log file created when I started the backup config program.

I then figured out anacron was failing because I have the /var/spool/anacron directory on a tmpfs system to save writes to my ssd disk. Cron creates its /var/spool/cron folder at boot but anacron does not. After adding that to my anacron init task, nacron started sbackup creectly 5 minutes after boot.

Sorry for the false alarm.
