cron-dccd not working?

It's just a dumb shell script.  Have you tried debugging it?  I would
  - add "exit" after the part that deletes old log files and before
     the part that notifies users about new log files
  - run it with `cron-dccd -x` or `sh -x cron-dccd`

Before that, I wouldd check to see that I'm running the current version
because of these notes in the CHANGES file for 1.3.6:

    Fix recent bug in cron-dccd that stopped emptying client per-user log
	directories.

and 1.3.5:

    Fix recent bug in cron-dccd that stopped emptying /var/dcc/log.
