I'm pretty sure the global crontab file doesn't have a Username field, since that's more for individual users. Minute and Command sound like the right choices here.

Haha, can you imagine if the Year field was in the crontab? That would be like scheduling something for the year 2525 or something. Nah, I'm sticking with Minute and Command.

Year in crontab would be interesting, but I'm going with Minute and Command as well.

Yeah, Year in crontab would be crazy. I think Minute and Command are the safe choices.

Well, the Username field is definitely not in the global /etc/crontab file, since that's a system-wide configuration. I'll go with Minute and Command.

I think you're right. Username is not in the global file. Minute and Command seem like the correct choices.

Hmm, I'm not sure about the Year field. That seems a bit too specific for a crontab file. I'm going with Minute and Command.

I think the correct answers are Minute and Command. The global /etc/crontab file and user-specific crontab files both have these fields.

Actually, Username is only available in user-specific crontab files, not in the global /etc/crontab file.

I think Username should also be included in both global and user-specific crontab files.
