Can we run cron jobs?

[raenrfm]

I'm using MRTG in a different container to generate graphs for my switch and router, but it creates RRD's that I get the "different architechture" error message when I try to use check_trafrrd in my nagios container. They share the same directory for the rrd's generated by the MRTG container.

I have a cron job running in the MRTG container that converts all the rrd's to xml, and then set up a cron job in the Nagios container to use the rrdtool to convert them back to rrds so they can be used in Nagios to check bandwidth usage. My script runs fine, I've used absolute paths in the scritps with the cron job where I'm using the run-parts comment to run any script in the directory I have pointed in there. It seem the cron job does not run at all. If I run the script manually it shows for one 5 minute cycle the bandwidth but after that it stops because the cron job isn't running.

Any ideas as to why?
