hi all,

I found this output in logread:

Tue Nov 10 10:24:00 2020 cron.err crond[4541]: USER root pid 7114 cmd ((sleep $(($RANDOM % 30)); /etc/shared-state/publishers/shared-state-publish_vouchers && shared-state sync pirania &> /dev/null)&)

I thought the output in the logilfe should be with the used values?

I also got no return of an value by -> echo $RANDOM

Where should this be initialized?
