[Koha] Items marked long overdue one day after due date

[Tim McMahon]

This is what I changed my crontab entry to and I'm still getting items 
marked as long overdue and the patron is charged the cost of the item 
when they are only one day past due.

10 21 * * * /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/longoverdue.pl --lost 100=1 
--charge 1 --confirm
