Thanks for that.  That's where it was.
 
Figures - I've been a unix admin forever and I never even knew that file
was there.  I always use /var/spool/cron.  You learn something new every
day.

	/etc/crontab? (or some other central file). Root crontab entries
aren't normally in /var/spool/cron.

	Unfortnately no.  The root user doesn't even have a file in
/var/spool/cron.

	 

	All I can think is that one of the hobbit server processes
itself is running something on a regular basis.  But that's the lesser
question.  The bigger question is "what does the error mean and how do I
shut it up?" :)
