RoyK, its been difficult to work on this as its not clear how to reproduce yet. I'm wondering if this has to do with alternative user/group sources like ldap and such. runlevel 2 happens before the network is up, so calls to getent() for users that don't exist might cause a failure. This would affect systems using winbind, NIS, etc. etc.

Can somebody who is affected try changing /etc/init/cron.conf's start on line to be

start on net-device-up IFACE!=lo

to confirm that?

Also it may help to just move the start on line to after all sysvinit jobs..

start on stopped rc RUNLEVEL=[2345]
