Cron needs to be able to see the key file system.  Generally, this is only
available on the auth server.  You could start up keyfs on another system,
though you should worry about what processes can get at the file system.

Can cron be run on a standalone system? The manual
says it can only run on an authentication server.

I notice when I try to use it, a reference to a "key" pops up at the time I set it to carry out the command, but
nothing else happens.
