      Hi,

      I'm new to pfSense.

      When I install cron package there are many jobs created by default.

      What is the purpose of these jobs?
      Is it safe to delete them all ?

      Thanks

        They are necessary for the pfsense to work.

        Is it safe to delete them all ?

        NO, leave them as they are!
