Linux kernel configuration for crons
===

I have been using a custom Linux Kernel 3.2.1 on a machine running Ubuntu 12.04 for some time, and today I wanted to schedule a cron task and realized that crons in the crontab are not being executed.

The `cron` service is running, so I believe it might be a problem with some kernel configuration option I missed, but don't figure out what may be. Any suggestion?
