[support] cron stuck on a node. how to find which one

[Brett Evanson]

There is nothing in the log files. It doesn't throw any errors. It just
kicks out. Right now, I'm running cron manually through the web, and the
crontab isn't even set. I get to the same node everytime, and it stops. I
just need to know what node it is stopping on. Any idea of how to find what
node that is?

That's cool.

You still need to check the log files.  Try decreasing the time 
execution and increasing the number of times cron executes.  The longer 
it runs the more memory it might use.
