How to output the result of a job in cron to a file with a runtime stamp?

Question

FreeBSD

Good afternoon!
There is a job in cron that executes the command to restart the named service every day at 5 am (why it is not important), and actually output the result of this command to a file like /var/log/named_restart.log.
But if you open this file and look at the entries, they will all be the same:

Stopping named.
Waiting for PIDS: 86988.
Starting named.
Stopping named.
Waiting for PIDS: 98754.
Starting named.

And I would like to put a timestamp when this task was completed.

Answer 1

So add to Cron, before the restart command, a time entry. The log, as I understand it, is written directly from cron?

Answer 2

Use syslog.
/etc/syslog.d/named_restart.conf:
local0.* /var/log/named_restart.log
