Does the text "daily" occur anywhere in /var/log/cron?

I have:

Nov 21 04:02:01 mk crond[32618]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.daily)
Nov 21 04:02:01 mk anacron[32622]: Updated timestamp for job 
`cron.daily' to 2005-11-21

I.e. cron.daily is run at 4 AM every morning.

Is you machine on at 4 AM? If not, is anacron
set to run the daily script after login? Check
/etc/anacron:

1       65      cron.daily              run-parts /etc/cron.daily
