Run Anacron in the services menu.

Description: Anacron (like `anac(h)ronistic') is a periodic command
scheduler.  It executes commands at intervals specified in days.  Unlike
cron, it does not assume that the system is running continuously.  It can
therefore be used to control the execution of daily, weekly and monthly jobs
(or anything with a period of n days), on systems that don't run 24 hours a
day.  When installed and configured properly, Anacron will make sure that
the commands are run at the specified intervals as closely as machine-uptime
permits.

This package is pre-configured to execute the daily jobs of the Mandrake
system. You should install this program if your system isn't powered on 24
hours a day to make sure the maintenance jobs of other Mandrake packages are
executed each day.
