Chef/Modernize/CronDFileOrTemplate matches on /etc/cron.deny

[tas50]

/etc/cron.deny is matching with the Chef/Modernize/CronDFileOrTemplate cop. Example:

file '/etc/cron.deny' do
  action :delete
end

hey @tas50 can you please elaborate your issue.

cron.deny and cron.allow are special files that can be placed in /etc/cron.d that allow or deny access to crontab. Their contents are completely different from regular cron.d files and as such can not be serviced by the cron_d resource.

I noticed that @tas50 is not even processing the file in /etc/cron.d, but in /etc instead, which should not trigger the warning at all imho. I noticed something similar with cron.daily, but will report that in a new issue.
