Linux - switch to "cron" user

Linux - switch to "cron" user

Sometimes i have issues with cron jobs not running, and diagnosing why can be difficult. What would be useful is to switch to the same user as the cron jobs run under, so i can see if there's a permissions hassle or something. Can anyone tell me how to do this? My linux version, from uname -r, is 2.6.32-36-generic
cheers, max
