    Is this the proper way to restart the cron daemon on a cpanel server?

    /etc/init.d/crond restart

    Go on, have a guess
    Yes, though it rarely should need to be restarted. Do you have a problem with it?

    I already figured it out, the cron daemon was not running.
    Someone at the datacenter was fixing a problem with the server, he must have killed the cron daemon.

    After I started it again everything is working fine again.
